Yamaha Pacifica Professional PACP12 Sparkle Blue

The Yamaha Pacifica Professional PACP12 in Sparkle Blue is a Made in Japan electric crafted for players seeking exceptional tone, versatility, and playability. Its alder body, built using Yamaha’s Acoustic Design Technology, delivers balanced resonance and optimized vibration transfer between neck and body, resulting in clear, dynamic sound with excellent sustain.

A slim C-shape maple neck paired with a 10–14" compound-radius rosewood fingerboard provides smooth, fast playability, making both chord work and lead lines effortless. The carved neck heel, contoured lower bout, and satin neck finish ensure comfort for extended playing sessions.

Equipped with HSS Reflectone pickups co-developed with Rupert Neve Designs, this Pacifica offers articulate highs, solid lows, and outstanding tonal versatility. The 5-way selector and push-pull coil split allow seamless transitions from single-coil sparkle to full humbucker drive.
