The Ultimate First Guitar for the Serious Player
The Yamaha Pacifica PAC112J is widely recognized as one of the best values in the electric guitar market. For over a decade, the Pacifica series has been the gold standard for player-focused, reliable, and versatile instruments.
Whether you are a beginner looking for your first high-quality instrument or an intermediate player needing a reliable backup, the PAC112J in a classic High-Gloss Black finish delivers a sound and feel well above its price point.
Why Choose the Pacifica 112J?
- Versatile Sound (HSS Configuration): Unlike standard beginner guitars that only offer single-coil pickups, the PAC112J features a humbucker in the bridge position paired with two single-coils. This “HSS” layout allows you to play anything from clean funk and blues to heavy rock and metal distortion.
- Solid Alder Body: The 112J uses solid Alder for the body—a premium tonewood used on guitars costing three times as much. This provides a balanced tone with good resonance and sustain.
- Comfortable Playability: The “C”-shaped maple neck is satin-finished (smooth, not sticky) and designed to be comfortable for hands of all sizes, making learning chords and scales significantly easier.
- Vintage Style Tremolo: The included tremolo bridge allows for expressive whammy bar tricks while maintaining excellent tuning stability.
Key Features
- HSS Pickup Layout: 1 Ceramic Humbucker (Bridge), 2 Ceramic Single Coils (Neck/Middle).
- 5-Way Pickup Switch: Dial in a wide variety of tones instantly.
- Solid Alder Body: Lightweight and resonant.
- Maple Neck: Bolt-on construction for a snappy attack.
- Rosewood Fingerboard: Warm tone and smooth feel.
