YAMAHA / PACIFICA PROFESSIONAL PACP12SWH Shell White [3.78kg]

High-end guitar that can be used for multiple purposes at a high level

This guitar is characterized by the solid construction that is typical of Japanese-made guitars. The fact that it was assembled with total consideration of sound balance is clearly evident when playing it. It is a guitar with such a high degree of perfection.

It is loaded with attractive elements such as the compound radius fingerboard and high-quality pickups made in collaboration with Rupert Neve Design, but at any rate, the sound is very clean and uncluttered. The string tension is exquisite, and the bass strings are well pronounced.

Combined with the "acoustic design" and I.R.A. effect, the output gives the impression of being larger than other guitars, and the volume and tone effects (curves) are smooth. This allows for detailed tone settings. The effectors have a good groove, and the volume and tone controls allow you to create your own tones, making this a truly professional guitar that can meet the needs of studio musicians. This is a guitar that is more than worth the price.

1. deeper top and back contours for a better sense of unity when playing

The back contour has been designed to be deeper so that it fits comfortably when the guitar is held. In addition, the top contour (the part where the elbow rests) has been changed from a straight shape to a rounded contour body to improve the fit against the arm. 2.

2. slim C-shape for modern playing

The Slim C-shape neck is designed to accommodate a wide range of styles, from lead to backing, based on the opinions of many players in Japan and the U.S. The "Standard Plus" has a 42mm neck, and the "Standard Plus" has a 42mm neck. The "Standard Plus" uses a 42.0mm TUSQ nut.

The roll-off processing on the side of the fingerboard is highly precise, and the neck thickness is set at 20.0 mm at the 1st fret and 22.4 mm at the 12th fret. Both low and power chords are stress-free and highly playable.

Compound Radius is used for the Professional Series

Compound radius is a high-precision conical fingerboard finish in which the fingerboard radius gradually increases from low to high position (rounded in low position and flattened in high position).

This is also recommended for those who want to set the string height low.

3. Hi-Fi pickup "Reflectone" completed in cooperation with Rupert Neve Design

This pickup was developed and manufactured by Yamaha in collaboration with Rupert Neve Design, a company founded by Rupert Neve, who has produced numerous pro audio masterpieces.

Using Alnico V magnets, the number of turns, winding method, and height of the pole piece were researched and developed from scratch. The result is an extremely well-balanced sound that combines the power of low frequencies with sparkling high frequencies. 4.

Acoustic Analysis Technology by Acoustic Design

Acoustic Design" is a design process that utilizes Yamaha's unique acoustic analysis and 3D modeling. By enhancing the coupled vibration of the body and neck, the midrange is enriched, and by adjusting the vibration frequency in the low range, a tight and clear bass sound is reproduced.

The following processing is applied.

Slit" processing to the body

Head and neck "lengthening

Improved control cavity cutting design (NC router cutting)

I.R.A. (Initial Response Acceleration)

A technology that eliminates stress between the paint and the wood by giving the finished guitar a vibration that is unique to that guitar. The result is a guitar that sounds like it has been played for many years.
