Loaded for sound

The Yamaha PAC112V Pacifica comes with a custom Yamaha Alnico V humbucker in the bridge position, perfect for when you want to rock hard and heavy. Two Alnico V single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions offer up all kinds of clean, rocking single-coil tones as well. And with a push/pull tone control, you can split the humbucker to get crisp, clean single-coil tones. The range this trio of versatile pickups offers lets you explore all kinds of stylistic approaches in just about any genre — and at Sweetwater, we're all about exploration!

Neck made to play

You will love the sleek, C-shaped maple neck and snappy maple fingerboard on the PAC112V. It is smooth, responsive, and instantly playable — great for lead play or chording. And with a vintage tremolo bridge with block saddles, you can play with the confidence that you will stay in tune.

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

My first electric guitar from acoustic / I am in love
Just as the title says , this made the switch to electric seamless.

I thought soloing on the acoustic was just supposed to be hard and impossible. That door was opened by this guitar.

At this price point , it is a steal. I absolutely love love love this guitar.

Good old Pacifica!
I had a Pacifica in the early 2000's that I gave to a grandson who was a budding s/s musician at the time. When recently looking for a budget friendly guitar (I am disabled and don't play well enough to justify a big$ guitar) I was looking at all the off brand guitars all over the internet when Yamaha popped in my head! Sweetwater was my first stop and what a perfect choice! After narrowing it down to three guitars, I chose the Pac112vm. If you can't do a setup yourself, have Sweetwater do it! I had the setup done and Fender locking tuners installed and wow! This guitar just plays beautifully! AND there is no need for pickup upgrades - these alnicos have a crystal clear tone and they growl and bark when you dig in! I could not be happier! And all thanks to my sales engineer Mike Johnson! Knowledgeable, patient, helpful and a hell of a nice guy! Sweetwater is the BEST!

Beginners guitar?
I wouldn't call this a beginner's guitar. More intermediate. Perfect for club gigs, cover bands, wedding bands or light recording. Sure you could play any sized gig, technically with this. That's not the point. This is a gigger's workhorse. There is a stigma that still says you must pay $1000+ to have a pro guitar. That's garbage up to a point of success most never reach.
