Yamaha PACS+12 Pacifica Standard Plus Electric Guitar, Rosewood Fingerboard

Introduced in 1990, Yamaha’s Pacifica solidbody electric guitars gained instant worldwide popularity thanks to their outstanding quality and value. Indeed, with its smooth playability and sonic versatility, it didn’t take long for the Pacifica to become a stalwart on the LA session scene. Now, Zoso Music is excited to present Yamaha’s high-end line of Pacificas designed by Yamaha Japan in partnership with Yamaha Artist Services in Hollywood.
