Acoustic Design Technology Produces Balanced Tone

Yamaha’s Acoustic Design technology utilizes scientific processes such as 3D modeling to devise wood-routing techniques that increase body resonance and improve the transfer of vibrations between neck and body.

Exceptional Playability

With its slim C-shape neck, carved neck joint heel, beveled body, and compound 10-14" fingerboard radius, the Pacifica Professional is exceptionally easy and comfortable to play.

Slim C-Shape Maple Neck

A modern neck shape that facilitates both comfort and speed, combined with a Custom Tinted Satin finish for smooth, friction-free playability.

 

Carved Neck Joint Heel

Comfortable Contoured Body

Compound-Radius Fingerboard

Graphic representing Pacifica Professional's compound radius fingerboard. The 10-14" compound-radius fingerboard enables you to play chords cleanly and accurately lower on the neck, while also making it easier to bend notes higher on the neck when soloing.

Newly Designed Pickups Provide Clear Tone

New Reflectone pickups created in collaboration with Rupert Neve Designs deliver clear and articulate tones with solid lows and sparkling highs, while the HSS pickup configuration combined with coil-splitting capabilities results in outstanding versatility.

 

Aesthetics Inspired by Japanese City Pop Art

A variety of vibrant new finishes were developed jointly by teams in Hamamatsu and Los Angeles, inspired by Japanese city pop art and the sun-soaked vibes of Southern California.

Other Features

Initial Response Acceleration

Rosewood or Maple Fingerboard

Medium Stainless-Steel Frets

Premium Gotoh Hardware

Professional Close-ups: Gotoh locking tuners on back of headstock and Gotoh two-point tremelo bridge. Gotoh locking tuners, combined with the Gotoh 2-point tremolo bridge, ensure smooth operation and exceptional pitch stability.
