The Pacifica SC Professional is a "Made in Japan" flagship model created for guitarists seeking a wide range of expressive capabilities.
The Reflectone pickups, co-developed with Rupert Neve Designs, feature an HS configuration. By using the Focus switch, they produce a wide range of tones, from crisp vintage tones to modern sounds.
The chambered body, designed based on Yamaha’s proprietary acoustic design technology, “Acoustic Design,” delivers a rich, resonant tone.
In addition, the ergonomically designed body contour, neck profile, compound radius fingerboard, and carefully selected hardware ensure a comfortable, stress-free playing experience.
Built to Inspire, Built to Perform—Shaped to Create.
A guitar born for creation—evoking inspiration and enhancing expressiveness.

○ Electronics trusted in professional settings
The Reflectone pickups, co-developed with RUPERT NEVE DESIGNS specifically for this model, deliver a modern, well-balanced sound characterized by tight, punchy bass and clear, articulate highs.
The rear single-coil pickup is equipped with a “Focus Switch,” enabling an aggressive tonal shift that emphasizes the mid-low frequencies, as if the pickup had more windings. This allows for a wide range of tones, from the crisp, traditional sound of a conventional HS configuration to a modern sound.

○ Yamaha’s proprietary acoustic design technology, “Acoustic Design”
Using a scientific approach based on Yamaha’s proprietary acoustic design technology and 3D modeling, this design enhances the body’s resonance, efficiently transmits vibrations to the neck, and increases sustain.

○ Stress-Free Playability
A body precision-contoured based on ergonomics, a smooth curved neck joint heel, and an ideal center of gravity design ensure smooth access to the upper frets and comfortable, stress-free playability even during peak performance.

○ Smooth Playability
Designed with feedback from artists, the Round C neck features a custom-colored tinted satin finish, a compound radius fingerboard ranging from 241.30 mm to 304.80 mm, and medium-jumbo stainless steel frets. It perfectly balances comfort, smooth fingering, effortless bending, and tour-ready durability, ensuring a comfortable playing experience.

○ Carefully Selected Hardware
GOTOH hardware delivers clear, precise response and a rich, full-bodied tone.
Precisely engineered locking tuners ensure excellent pitch stability and smooth tuning. Furthermore, GOTOH brass “In-Tune” saddles maximize resonance, clarity, sustain, and a natural playing feel.

○Initial Response Acceleration (I.R.A.) Treatment
The proprietary Initial Response Acceleration (I.R.A.) treatment applied after completion enhances resonance and sustain, resulting in a guitar with superior responsiveness.

○ Design That Inspires Creativity
A fusion of classic style and Yamaha’s signature character. Vibrant colors, a sophisticated modern look, and a finish inspired by city pop exude a unique charm.
