2000 Yamaha Pacifica 112 XJ Electric Guitar



Overview: I do like Yamaha Pacificas.  They're clearly Strat clones of a generic style but the necks are a bit more on the modern, shreddy side and they have a practical, comfortable feel about them. This one comes in a limited-run color -- sort-of a gunmetal grey meets a dark, mossy, metallic green. It has wear from use and love but cleaned-up well and is a good player with "all the sounds" -- from Stratty cleans right to punchy, midsy, humbucker bridge stuff.


Repairs included: I cleaned this up, leveled and dressed the frets, blocked the whammy (to make it a "hardtail"), and set it up. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.

Condition notes: The hardware shows some mild rust and/or pitting to its plating. I have blocked the whammy so it's essentially a hardtail setup. There are scratches and scuffs here and there throughout the finish but, overall, it looks nice. It appears to be all-original.


It comes with: Sorry, no case.
