Yamaha Review: Pacifica 112

Yamaha Electric Guitars



History:

Purchase: I got this guitar for my birthday second hand but would be approx £200 new. when I bought it, it had a few dents and scratches in the wood but otherwise good condition.

What I Like About This Yamaha Pacifica 112: I really like the wooden finish but it shows up scratches a bit. The varnished neck feels nice for slide guitar especially. It also stays in tune very well.

What I Do NOT Like About The Yamaha Pacifica 112: I had a problem with the jack socket at first but it was just a loose earth wire. t The wood dents quite easily but its not very noticeable. The whammy bar does take it out of tune alot but it is easy to tune again. nothing very serious.

Yamaha Pacifica 112 Quality Rating: Nothing has ever fallen off or broken on the guitar so I guess its strong. When it comes to taking the back off the electrics are all fine but putting the back, back on the screws can cut new grooves in the wood. you just have to be careful.



Review Summary: Its a great begginer or intermediate guitar and great value for money. I play it through a Squier 42 watt amp and sounds great for rock, blues and heavy metal. Its great!

Rating of this Yamaha product: 5
