Pacifica Standard Plus
The Pacifica Standard Plus is designed for guitarists seeking a modern sound. With a newly designed body optimized for acoustic performance, smooth playability and durability thanks to stainless steel frets and GOTOH hardware, and a balanced sound from the "Reflectone" pickups co-developed with RUPERT NEVE DESIGNS, it will inspire you as an excellent partner.

1. Deeper top and back contours for a more integrated playing experience
The back contour has been deepened to ensure a natural fit when holding the guitar, and the top contour (where the elbow rests) has been changed from a straight line to a rounded contour, improving the fit and comfort for your arm.

2. Slim C Shape for Modern Playing Styles
Incorporating feedback from 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 roll-off on the sides of the fingerboard is highly precise, with the neck thickness set at 20.00mm at the 1st fret and 22.4mm at the 12th fret.This design ensures stress-free playing for both open 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 researching and developing the number of windings, winding method, and pole piece height from the ground up, it achieves a highly balanced sound that combines powerful low end with "sparkling" high end.

4. Acoustic Design-Based Sound Analysis Technology
"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 applied:
・"Slit" machining on the body
・Shortening the headstock and neck
・Improved control cavity milling design (milled using an NC router).
