Yamaha Pacifica Professional with Rosewood Fretboard Electric Guitar - Black Metallic

Pacifica Professional guitars were designed for players seeking their own unique sounds. Meticulously crafted in Japan, they deliver superb sound and playability, and feature an alder body, slim C-shape maple neck with compound-radius rosewood or maple fingerboard, Reflectone pickups co-developed with Rupert Neve Designs and a choice of several vibrant finishes.

Acoustic Design Technology Produces Balanced Tone

Yamaha Acoustic Design technology utilizes scientific processes such as 3D modeling to devise wood-routing techniques that increase body resonance and improve the transfer of vibrations between neck and body.

Exceptional Playability

With its slim, C-shape neck, carved neck joint heel, beveled body, and compound 10-14" fingerboard radius, the Pacifica Professional is exceptionally easy and comfortable to play.

Slim C-Shape Maple Neck

A modern neck shape that facilitates both comfort and speed, combined with a custom-tinted satin finish for smooth, friction-free playability.

Carved Neck Joint Heel

The smoothly contoured neck heel makes accessing the uppermost frets both comfortable and easy.

Comfortable Contoured Body

The alder body is beveled along the lower bout to increase playing comfort.

Compound-Radius Fingerboard

The 10-14" compound-radius fingerboard enables you to play chords lower on the neck cleanly and accurately, while also making it easier to bend notes higher on the neck while soloing.

Newly Designed Pickups Provide Clear Tone

New Reflectone pickups created in collaboration with Rupert Neve Designs deliver clear and articulate tones with solid lows and sparkling highs, while the HSS pickup configuration combined with coil-splitting capabilities results in outstanding versatility.

Aesthetics Inspired by Japanese City Pop Art

A variety of vibrant finishes were developed jointly by teams in Hamamatsu and Los Angeles, inspired by Japanese city pop art and the sun-soaked vibes of Southern California.
