A Pacifica Professional Designed for Consistency, Stage, and Studio
The Pacifica SC Professional 11S sits at the top of the Pacifica range with a philosophy clearly focused on performance: Japanese manufacturing, choice of premium components (Gotoh, Graph Tech TUSQ), and finishes designed to withstand rehearsals, studio sessions, and concerts. The "Acoustic Design Process" aims for an overall balance between attack, sustain, and dynamics to keep the guitar clear, accurate, and reliable, even in dense arrangements.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
Thanks to its smooth playability and particularly versatile electronics, this electric guitar is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want a unique instrument to cover a wide repertoire. It feels at home in pop, rock, blues, funk, and contemporary music, both for precise rhythm playing and lead. The compound radius enhances comfort on chords near the nut while securing bends and expressive playing higher up the neck.
Sound Characteristics
The combination of a 2-piece alder body and maple neck provides a clear and responsive foundation, with nice midrange definition and a crisp attack. The Reflectone EH7n humbucker in the neck position delivers body, natural warmth, and comfortable sustain for singing solos or thick rhythms. The Reflectone HT7b single coil at the bridge emphasizes bite, precision, and dynamics, ideal for chicken picking and well-articulated attacks. The Focus Switch (push-pull on the tone control, dedicated to the bridge pickup) expands the palette by evolving the bridge's voice from a defined sharpness to a denser presence, perfect for standing out in the mix without necessarily increasing gain. Finally, the master volume with hi-pass capacitor helps maintain clarity when rolling down the volume, a real plus for both stage and recording situations.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To preserve the original feel and balance, favor an electric string set in 0.010-0.046. Since the hard case is included, a strap with standard attachments and a selection of picks efficiently complete a ready-to-play setup.
