“Yamaha doesn’t flood the market with new guitars, but when they’re this good, you can see why”: Yamaha Pacifica Standard Plus PACS+12M review

Unlike the majority of large-scale manufacturers, Yamaha doesn’t flood the market with new guitar models every five minutes. Last year’s Revstar Mk II models came some seven years after the original line was launched, and at the start of this year, the first new Pacifica guitars were announced over a decade after any previous introductions.

Now, the Pacifica dates back to 1990, designed by the small team at then-new Hollywood based R&D centre. It started life as a high-end ‘SuperStrat’ and achieved colossal sales in the start-up 112 format, introduced around three years later, and still being made today.
