The high-end PAC1511MS has a solid swamp ash body, with a Seymour Duncan humbucker neck pickup, and a Seymour Duncan "hot-rails" humbucker pickup in the bridge position, and a non-vibrato bridge with strings passing through the body. Other variations include the twelve-string PAC303 12, and the reversed headstock PAC721R. These guitars were ultimately too costly to produce and hence too expensive for Yamaha's market. The early PAC1412 and PAC1421 models had set necks and carved tops with Floyd Rose locking vibrato bridges. The entry level PAC012 has one Yamaha humbucker and two single coil pickups, an agathis body and a Strat-style vibrato bridge. ![]() At the time of the original launch this guitar was intended to compete with some of Fender's budget models. The 112 has a solid Alder body and has always been available with a clear varnish finish, showing the grain of the wood. The best-selling and most recognisable models are the entry-level PAC012 and PAC112. As of December 2009, there were currently 5 models in production. Apart from these similarities, the models vary in materials, hardware, and electronics. Pacificas all have one of two basic body shapes: a Stratocaster inspired double cutaway shape, or a Telecaster-like single cutaway. ![]()
