Yamaha PACS+12 Pacifica Standard Plus Electric Guitar - Sparkle Blue BSTOCK

Acoustic Design Technology for Superior Tone

Yamaha's commitment to delivering an audibly pleasing experience is showcased through their Acoustic Design technology. By employing scientific advances like 3D modelling, the Pacifica Standard Plus benefits from enhanced body resonance and an optimised vibration transfer from neck to body. This engineering pursuit ensures a balanced tone that supports the nuanced performances discerning guitarists seek. It’s a testament to Yamaha's dedication to sonic excellence, providing players with a guitar that not only meets but surpasses their tonal expectations.

Exceptional Playability

The Pacifica Standard Plus redefines comfort for the modern guitarist. With its slim C-shape maple neck and satin finish, players enjoy frictionless transitions up and down the fretboard. The sculpted neck joint heel and bevelled body are not just visually pleasing – they’re ergonomically designed for easy access to all frets, encouraging uninhibited playability. A 13.8"/350mm fingerboard radius offers the perfect curvature for both chordal and lead playing, making the Pacifica Standard Plus a versatile instrument for various playing styles.

Newly Designed Reflectone Pickups

The collaboration between Yamaha and Rupert Neve Designs has birthed a new echelon of pickup clarity. The Reflectone pickups render each note with utmost articulation, balancing robust lows with crystalline highs. These pickups, in conjunction with an HSS configuration and coil-splitting features, open up a myriad of sonic landscapes, from warm, jazzy clean tones to aggressive, high-output leads. The Pacifica Standard Plus isn't just a guitar – it's a veritable sonic chameleon.

Inspired Aesthetics and Robust Features

Yamaha has merged visual artistry with high functionality, taking cues from Japanese city pop art and the laid-back essence of Southern California. Each of the Pacifica Standard Plus's vibrant finishes tells a story of cultural synergy and aesthetic boldness. But the experience doesn't stop at mere looks. Maple fingerboards ensure a bright tonal response, while medium stainless-steel frets grant longevity and buttery string bending. Topping it off, Gotoh's premium hardware, from the locking tuners to the 2-point tremolo bridge, provides smooth performance and stable tuning for the discerning musician.
