Showstopping Solidbody Pacifica with Expansive Tonal Palette

The Yamaha PAC611VFM Pacifica Electric Guitar has everything you need for stellar tone without compromise. It all starts with the woods: maple for the body and neck and a gorgeous flamed maple laminate top and speedy rosewood for the fingerboard. This combination alone is enough to take the PAC611VFM Pacifica to the top of its class, but Yamaha refused to stop there. A pair of full-force Seymour Duncan pickups in the bridge and neck expands this instrument's tonal palette in ways that make it the perfect go-to instrument for rock, jazz, metal, fusion, and everything in between. Let's not forget the Wilkinson tremolo for handling your most expressive phrases, made even better with Grover locking tuners to keep everything sounding pitch perfect. Of course, don't just take our word for it — grab the PAC611VFM Pacifica, plug it in, and bask in all its sonic glory!

Hard-hitting tonewood cocktail

Yamaha constructed the PAC611VFM Pacifica with premium woods throughout. Its all-maple body is topped with a stunning flame maple laminate, producing a bright, cutting tone that sounds just as great on stage as it does in the studio. The sturdy and snappy maple neck is capped with smooth-as-glass rosewood, a timeless tonewood coveted for its incredible feel, excellent response, and ability to send your playing from head to heel in a flash. Pacifica owners always remark how magnificent the necks feel, and the PAC611VFM is no different. Its supremely comfortable "C"-shaped neck rests perfectly in your fretting hand for longer, more relaxed playing sessions — good luck putting this showstopper down!

Killer Seymour Duncan pickups

High-powered pickups give the PAC611VFM Pacifica a bold and brash sound that beckons to be heard. The Seymour Duncan TB-14 humbucker in the bridge position is your go-to for dialing in thick, searing humbucking tones. The SP90-1N in the neck position pairs perfectly with the TB-14, providing crisp and clear single-coil tones with some extra bite. And with a 3-position blade, a master volume, and a master tone with a push-pull control, you can tailor this 6-string's incredibly expansive tonal palette to a wide variety of genres and styles — something Sweetwater's many experimental axe wielders thoroughly appreciate.

Reviews

As expected from Yamaha - Amazing Quality & Tone
I'm a beginner to playing electric guitar & was struggling to decide which one would be my first. The Yamaha Pacifica series is regarded as one of the best in terms of quality, tonal range, and affordability. Although I could have gone for the recommended 112V, the 611VFM stuck out to me and I bought it in a heartbeat. The bright P90 and thick Humbucker let me get lots of tonal variety for different music genres from J-rock to alt to metal. It's only been a few months but I can easily see myself sticking with the 611VFM for a long time.
Yamaha makes great guitars. Price way better than fender.

Great guitar in tune, good wood..which is hard now. No negative at all....Love p-90...only why 4.5, cause fender copy. If you want a fender, get one, might not be as good, play as well, but feneder, fender pickups, etc. That can be magic at times. But have to say, agian, Yamaha makes great guitars, this one I bought, so good. Like costom, but not. But if you are looking mainly at fender, too expensive, looking....just buy a fender, again, prob. not as good as this guitar, but then you will not have to about this one. Fenders...love, love, love them...but not prefect at all, maybe what makes up great. Same as Yamaha. Best!
