The Pacifica 112VM sets the standard for performance and value. Built with stage-ready features, precision craftsmanship, and a meticulous factory setup, it delivers exceptional playability without compromise.
Yamaha keeps it simple and effective: a solid American alder body, smooth maple neck and fingerboard, custom-voiced pickups, a responsive vintage-style tremolo, and dependable chrome hardware. Every detail comes together to create a guitar that feels professionally dialled-in right out of the box.
Blending classic style with modern versatility, the Pacifica 112VM is easy to play, inspiring to hold, and designed to translate your ideas straight from your imagination to your amp - exactly the way you want to hear them.
The maple fingerboard on the best-selling Pacifica 112VM adds crisp attack and fast response. Paired with Alnico V pickups and a versatile coil-tap function, it delivers a dynamic, expressive tone that inspires players on stage and in the studio.
Both the single coils and the humbucker use Alnico V magnets for bright clarity, strong projection, and a focused tone that cuts through any mix.
The coil-tap on the rear humbucker unlocks a wide range of sounds - from powerful, driven tones to sharp, single-coil character. A push-pull switch on the tone knob lets you switch instantly, and selecting the 4th pickup position automatically engages the coil tap for a clear, chiming half-tone.
The vintage-style tremolo with block saddle construction offers smooth operation, enhanced sustain, and a fuller, richer tone.
Like Yamaha’s premium Pacifica models, the bridge humbucker is mounted directly to the body, increasing resonance and providing a more responsive, dynamic sound compared to pickguard mounting.
