A Pacifica Designed for Versatility, in the Spirit of High-End Models
The Pacifica PA112V continues the tradition of Yamaha electric guitars known for their excellent value and versatility. This version emphasizes effective and musical electronics, with Alnico V pickups and a more "premium" approach thanks to the bridge pickup mounted directly on the body-a detail inspired by higher-end models in the range to gain density, harmonic richness, and sustain.For Whom and Which Styles?
The Yamaha Pacifica PA112V United Blue is ideally suited for beginner to intermediate guitarists looking for a serious first guitar, as well as more experienced musicians seeking a versatile solid-body for rehearsing, recording, and playing in a band. Thanks to its 5-position selector and coil tap, it easily covers pop, rock, funk, blues, and more modern genres with well-controlled distortion.The Sound
The combination of a alder body and maple neck provides a balanced sonic foundation, with attack and good definition, perfect for articulate clean tones as well as precise crunches. The Alnico V pickups deliver a sound that is both warm and clear: the single coils shine with precision and dynamics, while the bridge humbucker offers higher output and body for riffs and leads. The coil tap allows a return to a more "single-coil" character at the bridge, useful for punchier rhythms. Finally, the body-mounted bridge pickup favors a thicker sound and more present sustain, particularly appreciated with distortion.Technical specifications
