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 the neck and body.


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.


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


The smoothly contoured neck heel makes accessing the uppermost frets both comfortable and easy.


The alder body is beveled along the lower bout to increase playing comfort.


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.


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


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


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