Alnico Pickups

The pickups in Pacifica 112V and 120H models use Alnico V magnets to deliver a warmer and clearer tone than ceramic magnets.

Push-Pull Coil Split

Pulling up on the tone knob will split the humbuckers giving you single-coil tones for even greater flexibility.

Vintage Vibrato with Block Saddles

Our vibrato bridge offers smooth, responsive action and excellent tuning stability. The heavy block saddles deliver rich, deep tone and singing sustain.
