The Yamaha Pacifica 812WX is an electric guitar designed to deliver professional performance, premium components, and exceptional tonal versatility. Derived from the Pacifica 812W, it stands out thanks to its elegant quilted maple top and gold hardware, details that enhance both the instrument’s appearance and its distinctive character.

The alder body provides a balanced tone with excellent sustain, making it suitable for virtually any musical genre. In addition, the one-piece maple neck with a satin finish offers a smooth and comfortable playing experience, while the rosewood fingerboard ensures a precise and natural response.

Its HSS pickup configuration, featuring two Seymour Duncan SSL-1 single coils and a Seymour Duncan ’59 humbucker in the bridge position, delivers everything from bright, articulate clean tones to full-bodied overdriven sounds rich in harmonics. As a result, the Pacifica 812WX is equally at home in blues, rock, pop, fusion, and many other musical styles.

The guitar is equipped with a Wilkinson VS100 floating tremolo, which provides excellent tuning stability even during extensive vibrato use. Finally, Sperzel locking tuners make string changes quick and easy while helping to maintain reliable tuning throughout live performances.
