YAMAHA / PACIFICA STANDARD PLUS PACS+12 Sparkle Blue [11]

Introducing the NEW PACIFICA STANDARD PLUS Series!

1. Deeper top and back contours enhance the sense of unity while playing
To ensure a natural fit when holding the guitar, the back contour has been deepened. Additionally, the top contour (where the elbow rests) has been changed from a straight contour to a rounded one, improving the fit and comfort for your arm.

2. Slim C Shape Designed for Modern Playing Styles
Incorporating feedback from many players in both Japan and the U.S., we’ve adopted a Slim C-shaped neck that accommodates a wide range of styles, from lead to rhythm. The “Standard Plus” features a 42.00mm TUSQ nut. The fingerboard side roll-off is precision-machined, with the neck profile set to 20.00mm at the 1st fret and 22.4mm at the 12th fret.This design ensures stress-free playing of both open chords and power chords, delivering exceptional playability. Additionally, the newly designed neck heel facilitates easy access to the higher frets.

3. The “Reflectone” Hi-Fi Pickup, Developed in Collaboration with Rupert Neve Design
Developed and manufactured in-house by Yamaha in collaboration with Rupert Neve Design—founded by Rupert Neve, the man behind numerous legendary pro audio devices—this pickup utilizes Alnico V magnets. By conducting research and development from the ground up on the number of windings, winding method, and pole piece height, Yamaha has created a highly balanced pickup that combines powerful low-end with “sparkling” high-end.

4. Acoustic Analysis Technology Based on Acoustic Design
“Acoustic Design” is a design process that utilizes Yamaha’s proprietary acoustic analysis and 3D modeling. To emphasize the midrange through “enhanced coupled vibration” between the body and neck, and to reproduce tight, clear bass by adjusting the low-frequency vibration, the following modifications have been made.
・“Slit” machining on the body
・Shortening the length of the headstock and neck
・Improved control cavity milling design (milled using an NC router).
