YAMAHA / PACIFICA PROFESSIONAL PACP12SB Sparkle Blue [11]

High-end guitar that can be used for multiple purposes at a high level
The guitar is characterized by the solid construction that is typical of Japanese-made guitars. When you play it, you can tell that it was assembled with total consideration of sound balance. It is that well made.
It is full of delicious elements such as the compound radius fretboard and high-quality pickups made in collaboration with Rupert Neve Design, but it just comes out sounding beautiful and
The sound is uncluttered. The string tension is also just right. So the bass strings are well pronounced. The "acoustic design" and I.R.A. effect may be a combination of the two, but the output gives the impression of being larger than other guitars, and the volume and tone effects (curves) are smooth, allowing for fine tone settings. The volume and tone curves are also smooth, allowing for detailed tone settings. The effects pedal has a good groove, and the volume and tone can be used to create different tones, making it a truly professional guitar that can meet the needs of studio musicians.
It is a truly professional guitar that meets the needs of studio musicians and is well worth the price.

1. Deeper top and back contours for a more unified feel when playing.
The back contour has been deepened to fit more comfortably when holding the guitar, and the top contour (the part where your elbow rests) has been rounded off from a straight contour to a contoured body for a better fit.

2. Slim C shape for modern play
The Slim C neck shape was adopted to accommodate a wide range of styles, from lead to backing, based on feedback from 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" features a 42.00mm TUSQ nut. The roll-off processing on the side of the fingerboard is highly precise, and the neck thickness is set at 20.00mm thick at the 1st fret position and 22.4mm thick at the 12th fret position. Both low chords 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 that gradually increases the radius of the fingerboard from low to high position (gradual radius = round at low position and flattened toward high position). This design also prevents choking at the high position, and is recommended for those who 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 many famous pro audio pickups. By using Alnico V magnets and researching and developing the number of turns, winding method, and height of the pole piece from scratch, we have created an extremely well-balanced pickup that combines the power of the low frequency range with "sparkling" high frequency range. 4.

4. acoustic analysis technology by Acoustic Design
Acoustic Design" is a design process that utilizes Yamaha's unique acoustic analysis and 3D modeling. The following processing is applied to reproduce tight and clear bass sound by adjusting the vibration frequency in the low range and emphasizing the mid range through "coupled vibration reinforcement" of the body and neck.
1) "Slit" processing on the body
(2) "Lengthening" of the head and neck
(3) Control cavity cutting design improvement (NC router cutting)

I.R.A.
I.R.A. is 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 guitar is made to look as if it has been played for many years.
