- Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2019Style: 611HFMColor: Root BeerVerified PurchaseFirst things first! The hardware on this guitar is worth the purchase alone. The pickups, tuners and Graphtech accessories would cost around $300 combined. Rosewood fretboards are becoming increasingly rare and often replaced by other dark woods so this is a favorable feature, in my opinion. It's an alder body, which is a popular wood for this type of guitar and it also features a flamed maple top which pairs beautifully with what appears to be a tinted gloss finish. The neck is a thin vintage-feeling profile with an amber tint, with the fret ends capped and finished with gloss poly along the fretboard edge. The frets are medium and not too far from vintage-tall frets; which is a nice change from the more common medium jumbo frets. The radius of the neck is 13 3/4 which is relatively flat, but combines nicely with the slightly more narrow neck for playing with a Hendrix-ish "thumb over" technique.
The configuration and style of this guitar is not too far off of Fender's Rarities Flame Maple Top Stratocaster, which costs $2,499.99. It's a serious alternative to consider if you don't mind Yamaha's hardtail and pickup configuration.
The guitar, however, is not a Fender and while you can finesse classic tones from it, the thin neck profile and nearly-flat fretboard does not feel like a Fender. If anything, it reminds me more of a neck released by PRS, ESP and other "fast" style guitars.
The fit and finish of the guitar is amazing--I couldn't find a single flaw. These guitars appear to be made with very tight quality control tolerances. Their configurations are not identical to Fender or Squier, so you are buying something unique instead of a carbon copy of a Strat.
So, how does it sound? Amazing. The pickups are hotter than most of my guitars. It breaks up nicely on my Fender Twin and sounds like it runs hotter than my Les Paul. The overall tone of this guitar sounds more warm than bright, but not muddy or sloppy. Trebles are clear but not harsh. There's tons of headroom, too - with the volume pot set mid-way, the guitar is very dynamic.
This is a very versatile instrument. If more people knew what they were about, I have a suspicion that they'd be bought up rather quickly.

"Easy action" as they say. People comment on the finish (root beer). I purchased a Schecter Omen about the same time, this ones my favorite
- Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2020Style: 611VFMXColor: Matte Trans BlackVerified PurchaseFor the money, its hard to go wrong with this guitar. It holds up quite well to guitars far above its price point. The setup out of the box was good. Overall construction and finish were great. I had also just bought a $1000 Charvel that took me nearly 3 hours to correct issues and set up. I didn't have to do anything to the Pacifica except change the strings to my preferred set. This guitar has been a joy to play.
The locking tuners were hard to figure out at first, since the included instructions weren't very detailed. Once I figured out exactly how to use them, they are probably the quickest set of locking tuners on the market.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2024Style: 612VIIFMColor: Root BeerVerified PurchaseI was searching my next guitar, and after careful comparisons and reading the reviews, I decided to order this. Hardwares on this guitar are amazing from silky smooth tremolo, precision locking tuner and powerful pickups with good bites. I checked the neck and the body, and I didn't see any even small defects. This is a high quality product, highly recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2019Style: 611HFMColor: Root BeerVerified PurchaseGreat quality and really nice finish and sounds and plays exceptionally! Just one suggestion for Yamaha/Amazon.....”Come on guys, UPS can be pretty harsh in delivering product and this is to nice to see destroyed or damaged in any way. Just suggesting better packaging to avoid returns. I happened to be home at time of delivery so package was gently placed down however, it’s a great product guys and deserves a little more TLC in regards to packaging......Appreciate you hearing me out!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2022Style: 612VIIFMColor: Indigo BlueVerified PurchaseThree Seymour Duncan pickups makes nice sound, definitely love the Wilkinson bridge and Grover tuner. The only problem is there a gap between the pickguard and the humbuker, which does not look good. Ther are some dirty in the fingerboard which do not come off, maybe white paint? Over a great guitar, definitely worth it; craftsmanship need to be improve to make it perfect.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2021Style: 612VIIFMColor: Indigo BlueVerified PurchaseI had high hopes for this guitar…. But what a let down
I bought this through The Warehouse….and they should of sent this guitar back to Yamaha … the neck had a twist in it so it made it impossible to setup the guitar and the Fret height was all over the place...
- Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2021Style: 612VIIFMColor: Indigo BlueVerified PurchaseI dug Pacificas since back in the '80's when Michael Lee Firkins was ripping on them. Always wanted one and recently had the chance with one of these 612's. Mine SHOULD have been a great guitar, for the $$ or even more, except for two things: a) Mine had a warped neck, as verified by one of the best luthiers in Austin, TX and me, and b) Why in the world did Yamaha agree to partner with Grover to launch/semi-introduce these unnecessarily dodgy locking tuners that offer NO competitive advantage and add only a diversionary headache? What a mess! Again, no advantage, added headache. I had high hopes for this guitar. It was well made, etc. But a warped neck is the tell-tale sign of you-know-what craftsmanship, the worst. I'm still puzzled that this came from Yamaha, but life is short and it is what it is.
