    I've had my Yamaha Pacifica for 18 years, despite a few bangs, scratches, and some rust on the bolts and coils and machine heads, it still plays as well as when I bought it. Amazing guitar.

    It's a shame that so many beginners are given painfully bad pieces of junk when they could get a nice yamaha for the same price.

    These might be classed as beginners guitars, but I've been playing for over 20 years and this is an ace guitar...and refuses to go out of tune...and the body...dare I say it , is way more comfortable than a Strat...

      Absolutely,with upgraded hardware/pickups/electronics,these babies can go toe on toe with guitars who cost 3-4 times the money.have you checked the new 612V and 611V models,they come stock with S.Duncans,grovers and Wilkinson trem or Hipshot hardtail bridges.

  • @socialdef3
    @socialdef3 9 ปีที่แล้ว +231

    All Yamaha instruments are worth what they cost, and are more reliable and better built than most costing 3x as much. Built like tanks, and the newer guitars are coming great stock, electronics and hardware are all solid.
    I have 12 guitars, 6 of them are Yamaha. 'Nuff said.
    Whether you buy their entry-level or high-end, you just can't go wrong - highly recommended!

    Sounds great. The funny part about yamaha pacifica guitars is you pick one up for 200-300$ and think ok, I will upgrade it later or switch to a better guitar, 7 years later still playing the same guitar, I changed the pickups because my came loaded with 2 very high output ceramic humbuckers, and couldn't get a good clean tone out of it. Other than that, great instrument, no need to switch to other guitar. I might be getting the HSS pacifica as well just for the versatility. I swear it's the only guitar you'll ever need. Amazing build quality and reliability, can't go wrong with pacifica.

      @larsheuker 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes that is true . classic/acoustic guitars have a wider neck. Depends what do you want to play. If you want to play something like rock, blues , metal , punk. You should just go with electric.

    • @Char10tti3
      @Char10tti3 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ekaj H Yes it is easier, I'm buying an amp for my Yamaha Pacifica I got last month, it cost £55 on ebay, luckily it wasn't majorly far from my house.
      The neck on the £25 classical guitar is so much wider than the pacifica and I really couldn't play any of my favourite songs that well because it's designed for fingerstyle playing.The Roland Cube 20GX has an acoustic simulator so it can sound like an acoustic.
      The video demos look really good

      I second what the guy says,the Yamaha is an excellent guitar for beginners,quality build,easy to play,versatile.Put in some DiMarzios or Seymour Duncan pickups/better nut/locking tuners & play this trough a good amp and it will be just as a good as a more expensive Fender.I know many pro musicians who use them,because they're very durable instruments.

      ***** What this guy said. Yamahas are much better than they appear - most think of them as only entry-level instruments but people are missing out. They are the best guitars for beginners but also for modifying.
      Most that I have played (not 012 or EG/ERG, those definitely need upgrades) are pretty solid and play and sound awesome stock. I have a 612v (high end) but my 120SJ and RGX121S are awesome stock and don't even need pickups replaced for the most part (although it is ALWAYS tempting to throw in some aftermarket pups like Seymour Duncan, etc.) After a decent setup and change of strings, you're ready.
      One thing I do recommend to change is the electrical system: throw proper pots and caps in there and that's it.
      No need to spend $$$$ on Fender.

    Those who’ve never played a Yamaha Pacifica are those who have no idea what high quality they give you throughout the entire product range. They really do put Fender to shame with every model and every price point.
    It might sound cliché but once you go Yamaha, you never go back to paying many times more for other guitars that give you less quality just because of the famous name on their headstocks.
