PAC012/100 SERIES
Your first guitar should be a great guitar, so every Pacifica combines renowned Yamaha build quality and playability with superb tone. The Pacifica 012 is our most affordable electric guitar, and Pacifica 100 models offer a range of pickup, fingerboard material, and finish options. Find the perfect fit for your sound – and your style.
ALNICO PICKUPS (PAC112V/PAC120H)
The pickups in Pacifica 112V and 120H models use Alnico V magnets to deliver a warmer and clearer tone than ceramic magnets.
PUSH-PULL COIL SPLIT (PAC112V/PAC120H)
Pulling up on the tone knob will split the humbuckers, giving you single-coil tones for even greater flexibility.
VINTAGE VIBRATO WITH BLOCK SADDLES (PAC112V)
Our vibrato bridge offers smooth, responsive action and excellent tuning stability. The heavy block saddles deliver rich, deep tone and singing sustain.
MAPLE FINGERBOARD OPTIONS (PAC112VM/VMX)
The Pacifica 112V range offers players their preference of standard rosewood fingerboards on most models, or the brighter look and tone of maple fingerboards on Pacifica 112VM and VMX.
LEFT-HANDED OPTION (PAC112JL)
The Pacifica 112J is available in a left-handed version – the PAC112JL.
TWO-HUMBUCKER OPTION (PAC120H)
Players who favor the full, powerful tone of humbucking pickups may prefer the Pacifica 120H for thick rhythm and singing leads, with a hardtail bridge to increase tuning stability and sustain.
