HISTORY

Just a short ride up from the Pacific Coast Highway you’ll find Yamaha’s Guitar Design Center in Los Angeles, established in the 1990s to develop great new instruments working with the artists of the buzzing LA scene. Among the many guitars to have come out of the center, the Pacifica has proven to be one of the most successful instrument ranges we’ve ever made. The Pacifica 112V is the latest evolution of the multi-award-winning Pacifica line.

Since it first hit the scene in 1993, Pacifica 112 has been the best guitar you can buy for under £200. Solid Alder bodies, quality tonewoods, rock solid hardware and custom pickups – all these features set new standards in entry-level guitars.

Coupled with choosing the right parts – we know how important it is to put them together properly – to craft an instrument that looks, feels, sounds and plays great from the moment you pick it up.

Nearly 15 years later, we’re updating the classic 112 to become the 112V – with new hardware and pickups and the kind of subtle refinements that made that first Pacifica such a success – and always set-up to perfection.

We built Pacifica 112V to inspire you to play. Play harder.
