Pacifica Standard Plus guitars were designed for players seeking to discover their own unique sound. They deliver exceptional sound and playability, and feature a newly designed alder body, slim, C-shape maple neck with a rosewood or maple fingerboard, Reflectone pickups co-developed with Rupert Neve Designs and a choice of four vibrant finishes.

Acoustic Design Technology Produces Balanced Tone

Yamaha Acoustic Design technology utilizes scientific processes such as 3D modeling to devise wood-routing techniques that increase body resonance and improve the transfer of vibrations between neck and body.

Exceptional Playability

With its slim C-shape neck, carved neck joint heel, beveled body, and 13.8"/350 mm fingerboard radius, the Pacifica Standard Plus is exceptionally easy and comfortable to play.

Slim C-Shape Maple Neck

A modern neck shape that facilitates both comfort and speed, combined with a satin finish for smooth, friction-free playability.

Carved Neck Joint Heel & Comfortable Contoured Body

The smoothly contoured neck heel makes accessing even the uppermost frets both comfortable and easy. The alder body is beveled along the lower bout to increase playing comfort.

Newly Designed Pickups Provide Clear Tone

New Reflectone pickups created in collaboration with Rupert Neve Designs deliver clear and articulate tones with solid lows and sparkling highs, while the HSS pickup configuration combined with coil-splitting capabilities results in outstanding versatility.

Aesthetics Inspired by Japanese City Pop Art

A variety of vibrant finishes were developed jointly by teams in Hamamatsu and Los Angeles, inspired by Japanese city pop art and the sun-soaked vibes of Southern California.

Rosewood or Maple Fingerboard

Rosewood fingerboards are valued for their warm tone and smooth attack, whereas maple fingerboards provide a brighter tone and snappier attack.

Medium Stainless-Steel Frets

Stainless-steel frets are exceptionally durable, while also lessening resistance when bending strings.

Premium Gotoh Hardware

Gotoh locking tuners, combined with the Gotoh 2-point tremolo bridge, ensure smooth operation and exceptional pitch stability.
