Yamaha Pacifica 112J Lake Placid Blue
The Yamaha Pacifica 112J Lake Placid Blue hosts versatility in its nature. Equipped with a bridge ceramic humbucker, players can kick out the hot, rich lead tones that defined the rock ‘n’ roll genre. And, combined with the snap and bite of a pair of single-coils, your chords will ooze with plenty of clarity and articulation. So whether you’re unleashing fat, textured riffs and twangy cleans – the Pacifica will flourish, no matter your style.
It’s not just the sound, though. A sleek maple neck provides a comfortable feel in the palm of your hand across the entirety of its scale length. And it’s silky-smooth rosewood surface ensures you can transition between the most complex of shapes with ease. Want some extra flair for those searing solos? Well, with a vintage tremolo bridge, you can perform the most daring of dive bombs, or simply give those chords some shimmer. The power is with the player. And, so, a set of tone and volume controls ensure you have complete control of your sound.
The perfect pickup combination
Enrich your tone. The Ceramic Single Coils combined with a Ceramic Humbucker in this Pacifica offer an array of tonal options for you to play with. The bridge humbucking pickup offers a powerful, high output voicing which will add definition and punch to your notes. The neck single-coil is smooth, adding some depth whilst still remaining tonally bright. Then there’s the middle pickup, which offers a well-balanced, twangy, vibrant tone for you to enjoy. Combined, these single coils will help you deliver a rich array of sounds suited to any genre.
Easy to play
You’ll love it. The way the maple neck fits naturally into your hand is sublime, and offers complete comfort whilst you’re playing. You’ll find that, the more you play it, the more riffs flow naturally into each other. And a rosewood fretboard only builds on this, offering superb smoothness and a well rounded tonal response. These tools will help you discover your own playing style on guitar.
Tremendous tremolo
Everyone’s heard a whammy bar in action. They let you inject your riffs with vibrato, so you can make full chords oscillate as well as individual notes. This guitar features a classic tremolo system which will help to safeguard your tuning, and use the whammy bar as much as you like. It’s the real deal.
