Yamaha's innovative Acoustic Design technology significantly enhances the acoustic performance of the Pacifica Professional. By employing advanced 3D modeling and meticulous wood-routing techniques, Yamaha has optimized the guitar's body resonance. This leads to a more lively sound, with an improved transfer of vibrations between the neck and body, allowing the guitar to deliver a balanced tone rich in both warmth and clarity.
The Pacifica Professional excels in playability, courtesy of its slim C-shaped maple neck and expertly contoured body. This design, paired with the guitar's beveled body and carved neck joint heel, allows for effortless play across all frets. The compound-radius fingerboard, ranging from 10 to 14 inches, offers a comfortable and precise playing experience, whether you're strumming chords or executing intricate solos.
At the heart of the Pacifica Professional's sonic arsenal are the newly designed Reflectone pickups, born from a groundbreaking collaboration with Rupert Neve Designs. These pickups deliver unparalleled clarity, accommodating both robust lows and shimmering highs. With a versatile HSS configuration and coil-splitting capabilities, players can explore a vast array of tones suitable for any musical genre.
The visual appeal of the Pacifica Professional is a nod to the vibrant aesthetic of Japanese city pop art, fused with the laid-back, sun-drenched attitude of Southern California. The finishes, developed jointly by teams in Hamamatsu and Los Angeles, add a splash of color to the instrument, making it not just a tool for music, but also a work of art in itself.
To complement its superb sound and playability, the Pacifica Professional is equipped with premium Gotoh hardware. The locking tuners and 2-point tremolo bridge work in tandem to provide smooth operation and maintain excellent pitch stability, ensuring that the guitar can withstand energetic performances without losing its tuning.
