Product details
Yamaha PACIFICA212VQM Electric Guitar
The Yamaha PACIFICA212VQM is a versatile electric guitar featuring an attractive quilted maple veneer top and a classic Pacifica body design. Its alder body provides a balanced tonal foundation, while the quilted maple top and matching headstock give the instrument a distinctive appearance. The maple neck and rosewood fingerboard offer comfortable playability, making it suitable for beginners as well as developing and experienced guitarists.
The guitar features an HSS pickup configuration with two Alnico V single-coil pickups and one Alnico V humbucker. Combined with a five-position pickup selector, this arrangement delivers a wide range of tones, from clear, bright sounds to fuller and more powerful tones. The push-pull coil-split function on the master tone control allows the bridge humbucker to produce a single-coil-style sound, adding further versatility.
The PACIFICA212VQM has a 25.5-inch scale length, a 13¾-inch fingerboard radius and 22 medium frets for comfortable playing across the neck. Its vintage-style vibrato bridge with block saddles provides smooth tremolo operation and dependable performance. Die-cast tuning machines and quality construction make it a practical instrument for practice, recording and live performances.
