Yamaha Pacifica 012 MKII 4/4 electric guitar

Introducing the Yamaha Pacifica 012 MKII 4/4 electric guitar

Modelled on the best-selling Pacifica 112, this new entry-level model offers a comprehensive specification, with quality craftsmanship and a brilliant tone all for an affordable price.

Powerful sound

The Pacifica 012 has a contoured double-cutaway body, and the firepower of a raunchy bridge-position humbucker, plus two clear-toned single-coil pickups. The five-position pickup switch enables a selection of those classic 'in-between' sounds with fantastic tone control, while the vibrato bridge has a well-proven vintage design, with six individually adjustable saddles for accurate intonation and a slinky set-up.

Expertly crafted

Crafted with a maple neck, this instrument delivers a vibrant and crisp tone. The choice of a rosewood or walnut fingerboard not only enhances the warmth and richness of the sound but also ensures a consistently warm and inviting feel. The body, constructed from agathis wood, may not provide the same kind of tonal characteristics of more expensive woods, but it does offer a cost-effective, reliable and durable option - perfect for the beginner.

Ideal for beginners

Have you ever dreamt of playing the guitar or even forming a band? Now you can make that happen!

This a full-sized electric guitar that features a renowned quality construction and finish, making it the ideal introduction to the world of rock guitars. The Agathis body helps players get a clear and warm sound that matches that of much higher-priced models, and the double-cutaway shape ensures a very comfortable playing experience, ideal for learners and those who play regularly in rehearsals and gigs.
