Neck: Maple screwed (single action truss rod -_- ')
Rosewood Fingerboard
Frets: 22
Scale: 648mm
Pickups: 2 Alnico single coil, 1 humbucking Alnico splitable
Contrles: Slecteur 5 positions

Not trust the pictures of the black and white version of 112V, the key and the head of the guitar are much clearer. His particulire form Strat guy slams otherwise

USE

Then the word, very comfortable guitar debuter; very thin neck, very pleasant, without access to acute problems, not too heavy, little retuning frquent, ergonomic shape ... nickel.

SONORITS

This is where the drip pan is, jvous advises to buy in stores.

First having purchased the guitar in export in English there are 8 months, when the course of the book was downright sombr (current average price in France: € 250 € 180 against England oooooo) I retrouv myself with a guitar, certe grants, but not rgle AT ALL (I have never seen a handle as straight Oo Fretes touched the strings, the sound was degeu) so I started tweak the truss rod, easel and harmonics, with a few decent results prs, except for the handle ... like the handle of the truss rod is simple action, it was impossible even dessr up to have a concave handle. The original string set as the 9-42, tension n'tait not sufficient to handle bends naturally, I then changed to the 9-46 home ernie ball; its commenait become playable, but his always verged. I now plans to spend on the 10-52 or the 11-56 xD

The electronics is really bad quality knobs are really very bad notament the volume on mine (jvou not tell parasites), poorly made welds and botched little isols cables, push -Pull to split the humbucker not even functional xD Microphones ts have little prs okay for a low-end without this problem always Introduced pests; The humbucker is downright sloppy and not hotter than the neck pickup, just drinking the Tone max and only on the treble strings, the micro bridge is simple serves quasiement seen anything change the sound it makes no of the position (ah if it reduces some parasites pickup and reduces the interference characteristic simple neck pickup) and finally a few micro prs handle clean drinking but sorely lacking in personality .dropoff window

So who bought this guitar to dbuter, I bought at the same time excellent Cube 20x, which, say frankly, comes pniblement fill these gaps, but we get a good draw his in clean, overdrive and metal stack.

Appart sustain its not bad for the maple, even in 4 parts referred, and it sounds pretty good unplugged ^^

NOTICE GLOBAL

His six months must break everything I use my faith and it is a good guitar dbuter, thanks to its level of confortabilit and Superior nimporte finish what guitar this range view even above. Unfortunately, after the comments I've read manufacturing quality has DGRAD over the months, and feels especially on the default Recurring electronic ... low-end guitars is well, with and without microphones faibliards personalit but thanks to a good filled the beginner will override. For me the report qualitprix is ​​unbeatable (180 € the guitar: P) but would be more jme tourn to a model dowry expressive pickups and a mahogany body, but that price is the be found xD

Asian manufacturing (of course, at this price ...)
handle "Strat", so highway
21 frets
volume, tone, 5-way switch (2 single coil, 1 humbucker house)

UTILIZATION

motorway run, pleasant touch
fairly well polished frets
access to acute necessarily easy for the stratoïdienne form
easy to play, slightly

SOUNDS

excellent versatility for micro config: everything passes (blues, fund, rock and even nag with the humbucker)

OVERALL OPINION

that was my first guitar, and she gave me want to continue to nab at least once a day; Q / P ratio is great, much greater than the entry-level Squier and other moldy chinoiserie (lol)

For the features of this guitar is the best selling entry level Yamaha electric guitars, I do not believe it because they are now well known.

UTILIZATION

Nice handle, guitar not too heavy and very ergonomic.
I wanted a guitar with Strat sounds typed and from this point of view no surprises.

SOUNDS

This is an extra guitar for me to have cristalins sounds so typical single coil pickups for Strat. I easily found the sound I was looking to play pots and funk rhythms but also solos clear with a slight crunch.
I play on a Roland Cube last generation and this guitar blends perfectly with him.
I'm a little less enthusiastic about the spit bridge pickup because I find the sound a bit feeble and twangy but I also think we should dig out the possibilities of the guitar before making a final judgment.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week so my opinion may change again.
Initially, I thought point me to a Squier Classic Vibe and after testing in a store, I preferred the Pacifica.
When I saw the promo on a well known website I did not hesitate for long especially since I do not care about the color.
I confess to being amazed to have a guitar of this quality for such a low price, so I do
not regret my choice.
I think Yamaha makes guitars and basses in a very good quality and very good value for money.

Hobbyist. Love blues guitarists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy, Walter Trout. Also like rock guitarists like Joe Satriani and Yngwie Malmsteen.

Won it on ebay for $111.00 ($142 with shipping).

The overall look and feel is excellent. (Mine is the natural color with the solid wood body and rosewood fingerboard). A solid alder body at this price point is unheard of. It sports the look and feel of a natural colored stratocaster at a fraction of the price.

One minor complaint- I don't like the appearance of the tuning machines. They look a little cheap. However, the guitar stays in tune no matter how hard I hit it, so they do their job. If I ever change them out, it will be for purely cosmetic reasons.

The construction is solid. The alder body is rock-hard and is tightly bolted to the neck. The pickups show no signs of coming loose. There are no dead frets. The neck is thin and smooth, so easy to play. The guitar is surprisingly loud when you play it unplugged. The pickups, while not incredible, are more than good enough to play AC/DC-like riffs and blues licks, and the clean sounds are excellent. The quality is remarkable for a $200 guitar.

I have long wanted a Fender Stratocaster with a natural wood body. In order to get one, I would have to pay at least $500 for a Mexican 70s reissue (that's the cheapest version that has the natural finish). Until I can buy one, this Pacifica provides me with the same vibe and look for less than $150! Even after I get my strat, I will hang on to this guitar as my knock-around instrument. In my opinion, it is just as good as any standard Mexican strat for about half the price. I love this guitar.

I've bought this piece of quality gear in Dowsons in Abingdon. It was brought over from another shop within hours. I paid 169 GBP for it and bought Marshall 30 MG with it

It realy does the trick, the distinctive 5 position switch gives clearly different sounds in all positions, the humbucker is perfect. The neck I believe is black rosewood, really nice, and it is very easy to play. I've always wanted an electric guitar that can be used fo all different styles and friends recommended this one for a start. I reckon this is one item that will stick to me for a long time

It seems that the high pitch notes and the thin strigs are not loud enough but then I bougth a very light gauge. I plan to change the strings in a few day anyway.

It's colour called 'translucent dark green' Unfortunately the did not have it in Sunburst. When I first saw it, I could hardly take my eyes of it, the finish is absolutely gorgeous and

Very good value and quality guitar to start with and to play all styles. Highly recommended.

I got this guitar for my birthday second hand but would be approx £200 new. when I bought it, it had a few dents and scratches in the wood but otherwise good condition.

I really like the wooden finish but it shows up scratches a bit. The varnished neck feels nice for slide guitar especially. It also stays in tune very well.

I had a problem with the jack socket at first but it was just a loose earth wire. t
The wood dents quite easily but its not very noticeable. The whammy bar does take it out of tune alot but it is easy to tune again. nothing very serious.

Nothing has ever fallen off or broken on the guitar so I guess its strong. When it comes to taking the back off the electrics are all fine but putting the back, back on the screws can cut new grooves in the wood. you just have to be careful.

Its a great begginer or intermediate guitar and great value for money. I play it through a Squier 42 watt amp and sounds great for rock, blues and heavy metal. Its great!

This was my first electric guitar, I got it from Hooters in Watford for £299 including a Marshall MG15DFX amp and all the accessories.

Everything! It's great having a humbucker as well as two single coils so there is more choice (unlike a Squire or Fender Strat) - the humbucker has a really cool distorted sound. The neck is nice and thin, and I like the look of the headstock - much better than Fenders. Also the body shape is much curvier and nicer than Strats. I don't really know if it would be better to have two tone knobs (as most people say) but one is fine for me. I can play all sorts of music on this from Pantera (full distortion) to Stereophonics (acoustic mucic), but IT IS AS IMPORTANT TO GET A GOOD AMP AS IT IS TO GET THIS GUITAR!

WEll, there isn't really much to not like. I suppose nothing really.

Good hard construction I haven't really tested it yet but so far it is fine (of course I take loads of care with it but there is the odd knock). The paint job is really good, the scratch plate is fine, and the neck looks like it will hold up to almost anything.

A great guitar, you have to get it as long as you get good accessories otherwise you can't make it soud good. If you're looking for a beginner guitar, definitely get this one.

bought in plymouth, vibes music for £190
was my first guitar so picked it for the colour

i like the colour the price and its got a sweet neck. its also easier to play than my gibson les paul standard. its a good back up guitar with little faults and is practicaly indestructable.

the only thing wrong is its slightly stiff tremolo and has a slightly weak humbucker

it has an alder body with bolt on neck and a beautifully finished rose wood fingerboard

fully class for the money that you pay. a perfect beginners guitar and dam good pro guitar especially if you put a seymour duncan hotrail in it like mine

I brought it from Sound Control in Birmingham and paid £179 for it. Not only did I get a decent guitar but some cracking advice along with it as well.

I have played Electric guitar before but i had hit a crossroads with the one I had. I was playing through a keyboard amp, the tone was terrible and the whole setup was just not encouraging me to pick it up and play. I went into Sound Control told the man my budget and the pacifica was the first guitar I picked up. It has a great Wood effect finish, and the tone on it was superb. To get the sound I wanted out of the guitar though I had to buy a decent amp, plugged into a Fender Champion 30 amp, and I couldnt stop playing it. It sounded a brilliant setup and after about 30minutes of playing I decided to buy both the guitar and the amp

Not found anything yet.

The one I have has a wood effect finish, which I believe helps shine through the quality of the instrument. It really looks the business. The quality of both the guitar and the amp i brought has really shocked me, i thought I would have to spend a lot more to get this sound but its fantastic.

The amp is as important as the guitar, advise to test amps before you buy. I brought both together and spend £320 on my setup, with the amp nearly costing as much as the guitar. I know now though that I have a decent setup that will encourage me every day to pick it up and keep learning and improving technique. I really cant recommend this guitar enough.

I got my Pac. at a local Ohio pawn shop, I traded my trombone in for it. The price was $180 , I chose the Pacifica because it had a bridge humbucker, and I thought it was sexy.

This guitar is a work of gods! I play for a hard rock band called spearfinger (www.spearfinger.com), and WOW!!! This guitar isn't costly, it plays better than my friends American Strat. I've droped it down the stairs, out of windows, and it stays in tune, and still sounds amazing!!
I am going to buy another one so I can have the same sound in a lower tuning.

Its almost toooooo awsome.... I love everything about it.

This Axe is solid, light, well balanced. It does not matter what style of music you play. I can play everything from blue-grass to nu-metal.

If you dont have one, get one!! They are only around $200 at the most, and sound better than any other guitar I have played. GET ONE, OR TWO, OR THREE!!

I got mine at Long and Mcquade's instruments at Ellesmere Rd. in Toronto Canada, about 8 years ago, and it ran about $200 something canadian.

I have played numerous other Pacificas.

Well at it's price it's main competition would be the fender squire. One of the main reasons I would pick this up over a squire would be the pickups - It's got a bridge humbucker, and middle and neck single coil pickups, and 5 selector positions, a squire you has three single coils (some versions have 2) now those of you have no idea what that means are probably like so? How would that make it better than the squire? Simply put the Pacifica has more options on the sound of the guitar with the pickup switch than a squire would ever have.

Personal things is that the neck is a bit thinner and the strings are a bit more compact than the squire strats(easier to reach, and move faster for me).

As for the body, squire and pacifica are roughly the same design, sturdy as a rock, either can take a beating really well, both balanced in weight and design(won't lob down on one side).


If you are planning on buying a pacifica there is one thing to look out for, one or two pacifcas I have seen had a heavy buzz on the low E when played open, other pacificas don't have this problem at all, it's weird, all I can say is play before you pay. Other than that there isn't much else that you could call a problem, only personal preferences.

For the price, there is no other guitar you could buy new that would be better. Like what has been metioned before in other reviews this can take quite a beating.

Noramally you wouldn't think the words 'Made in Taiwan' would be found on anything of quality, but this is certainly more than an exception.

I bought this from sound control in Leeds for £180. I had being playing acoustic for a year previously and decided it was time to move on to a begginers electric guitar.

The thing that appealed to me the most was the fact that you get a quality instrument for a suprisingly affordable price. Also the 5 way pickup selecter switch to give it that inbetween sound.

Very little. It would be perfect if it had another control knob but thats just my preference. also id didnt come with a whammy bar but that was an error of the shop.

Great, can play for hours and it hardly goes out of tune. its built VERY solidly ive hit it against things, expected a dint in the wood and nothings there! its well built.

This guitar is perfect for begginers as it can play all types of music from blues to heavy metal. a good all-round guitar. Mine has no paint job which i like because you can see what wood it is and really get a feel for it.

This Guitar Was bought for me from Bristol for Christmas as i wanted one for some time. I think it costed £179 quid just for the guitar and the old man probably talked him into giving him his wife and pet dog, but not a bad price. The guitar was bought for me because i've wanted to play for ages and this seemed to be the perfect instrument for the job.

EVERYTHING. The guitar is a beuatiful instrument. I like the fact its not another Strat clone, other guitars should be cloneing this its wonderful. It has such a wide range of tones from rock, metal, blues, jazz, to the popes voice, i love it. The single coils are emense and far better than any i've seen (compared to my freinds mexican fender strat and my other mates strat copy)and it has a humbucker which is fantastic, im gonna get it put into a les paul when i get one, becuase the sound and its white which will look great on a black guitar. I'lkl stop now before i get to exited and emotional i love this guitar, far better than guitars twice or even trice the price.

Didn't you read what i said above!!!!

Fantastic quality, the best, comparable to any guitar on the market, i play mine in a band that plays all sorts of music and its perfect (very good at playing nickleback, hendrix, blink 182, ash, feeder and all american rejects)for what i need it for and what anybody wants a guitar for. The construction it fantasic, everythings were it should be. BUY ONE, IF YOU'VE GOT A BUDGET TO £1000 QUID BUY A COUPLE. ITS THE DOGS BOLLOCKS!!

I never hear enough about these guitars and i find it impossible to over rate. You should be shaging your mother in law to get one of these. There fucking graet, i play mine through a marshall mg and it realy is the fucking buissness, i use the marshall becouse its the best and it goes up to 11 (bit of spinal tap for you there) and its the only amp company good enough for this guitar .

I bought this guitar used, in pretty much new condition from a co-worker. When he learned I was looking for an electric guitar he told me he would sell me this pacifica for $200 (I should have talked him down a bit). I was not really interested and went to look at it just to be polite. I was surprised at first sight by what appeared to be a well constructed, decent instrument. After tuning it, playing it, banging on it and tuning it again I could see that it was well made, with tone equal to a more expensive instrument. I bought it on the spot.

Nice, varied tones for the price. Feels nice, set up nice. Stays in tune, can take abuse. For the price, this guitar can produce respectable, listenable sounds, at least for rock and blues. I get off when I play it.

Cheap. Just Adequate. Doesn't exactly cry from it's case to be picked up, played and loved. Less than perfect intonation. Other musicians may regard it as a toy.

Well constructed. Once played, the quality does seem to exceed the price.

Faced with limited funds, the pacifica is great for practice, looks cool and sounds ok. Really a great guitar for a beginner, or if playing is a hobby. There will be little or no creaming over this axe, but it is decent for the price.

I got it online at www.musiciansfriend.com as my second guitar for 180 bucks.

This is a guitar thats worth at least twice what its sold for. Its a great guitar, and i know ill never sell it. I got it in the vintage white, and looks great. It plays like a beast! i love the humbucker pickup on the bridge, and since im in the punk scene, i dont use the 2 single coil pickups, but they sound great to me. The neck feels great, and its very light too. This is a perfect first guitar, and also a sweet second guitar. sure it doesnt have a name like fender or gibson, but hey, im the kinda guy that says "f*ck conformity" and i like being a bit original. this is the guitar to do that with.

Hmmm, what i dont like...well, there was a buzz on the open g, but i think that was a problem only with my particular unit.

Like i said, there is that problem with the g, but everything else is fine. And i think i forgot to talk about the neck. its a great, comforatble, easy to hold neck with a nice fretboard. but my recommendation, dont get the maple fretboard, get the rosewood. maple fretboards tend to stain from the oil on your fingers, and after awhile, they get all nasty. but on the rosewood, it doesnt get discolored.

BUY THIS GUITAR! you'll feel good about it.

I purchased the 112 from American Musical Supply over the internet. It was purchased as a Christmas gift for my 12 year old son. I paid approx. $175.00

The price was what attracted me to the guitar. I was looking for an inexpensive beginner guitar. I found the same guitar in local stores for twice the price.
The unit is easy to play and sounds good now that we had it repaired.
But....I will never purchase another Yamaha product for the rest of my life......their customer support is terrible! See below.

I do not like the service provided by Yamaha. There was none. They gave me the run around for almost a month!

When my son open his Christmas gift he was very excited. Unfortunately that excitement turned to disappointment very quickly.
The first night was fine. Everything worked. The next day the guitar's plug jack seemed to be shorting out. The next day it didn't work at all. If you tied a rubber band around the cord and placed the jack 1/4 of the way into the guitar...it would work great. Just don't get up or move more than a few inches.
I contacted American Music. They were great. They told me to send it back. I didn't want to go through that hassle so I attempted to contact Yamaha to find a local authorized repair shop. I called them in California several times, long distance. Each time they would put me on hold for a while. The first time that I called the gentleman gave me a repair reference number and told me that another man would get back to me with 24 - 48 hours. I waited a few days and called again. A woman answered and said that the man that handles guitars is on the phone and that he would call me back. I called back late in the day and left him a message to call.I waited a few more days and called again. I called again. I called again.
My boy had been without a working Christmas gift for weeks. So....I brought it to a local guitar guy and he fixed it in about 15 minutes........for free!
A week or so after I had it fixed I received a call from the Yamaha guy. He stated that the women should not have told me that he was going to call me back because he was going out of town on business....bla bla bla bla bla bla.... Yatta yatta yatta........
They only have one guy in charge of the entire country?!

I will never purchase another Yamaha product for as long as I live.

I bought this guitar eight and a half years ago for 250 pounds at Westside Music Centre in Taunton because it had great looks and a good all round tone.

This solid body electric Strat copy guitar is FANTASTIC. It does everyrthing from Fender-like clean sounds through to Metal. The combination of two single coils and a humbucker work well and the neck radius is small. The rosewood fretboard is very fast and the tremelo unit although not 100% is good enough and the tuning stability is great. I used to check the tuneing once a week and found it was pretty much there. Mine also has a graphite nut which is pretty damm good.

Other Pacificas i've seen look plasticy and the rosewood fingerboards are not as dark as I think they should be. Maybe I was just lucky with mine. The pickups are reasonable and, if put through the right amp (I use a Peavey Bandit 75) can sound Hank Marvinish through to Gary Mooreish. Having said that, I waould like to change them in a while.

The Pacifica is built like a tank. It is very well made and mine has survived a couple of big knocks very well. I have looked after it very well though. It will last years if you pamper it from time to time to keep it sweet.

One great guitar but be careful that you get one with a decent finish, graphite nut, good trem and decent sounding pickups. If you find such an animal (shouldn't be too hard) then you are on to a winner. All in all a great starter guitar for under 200 smackers at the moment. It was voted Best guitar under 200 quid for a couple of years running actually. I'm going to be buried with mine thats how much I love it!

Purchased 2 years ago for £180 at PMT Southend on Sea Essex England. Purchased as my first electric.

It has a bridge Humbucker and 2 single coils on a 5 way selector so you can get quite a few different sounds out of it.
The action is increadible low and smooth. I've friends who have a friend who has a Mexican srat and a les paul studio, I would love a both, however when ever I visit he always seems to end up on my Pacifica, I don't mind I get to play on stuff I can't afford. He's now going to get one as a back up for his strat.
There is plenty of cutaway to get to the uncharted territory on the higher frets and the sound does'nt break up too much when you get there. The trmolo arm works ok as well not that I often us it.
The headstock seems to go on forever which means the strings are'nt bent up there and put under extra stress.
All in all it's comfortable to play, the angles on the body make it nice to hold to. It's taken me from amatuer to much and I still really enjoy playing it. In my opinion you can't beat it for the price, it compares with strats but is almost half the price.

Sometimes I notice that the pick ups are lacking a little something, but then again for the price they're not bad.
Only haveing a master tone and volume is a bit annoying but with 3 pick ups I think 6 nobs would make things a bit crowded. However I do think that the volume nob is in a very bad position, if your playing leed or picking rythem no problems but as soon as you start going a bit heavy on the strumming you start knocking the volume up and down.

The body is of five piece construction, not too sure what wood but I know it's not expensive stuff though, I went for the natural finish. The neck is a single peice job and the fret board holds the standard 22.
All in all very sturdy even if it's not made from solid woods?

For the price you wont find a better electric, it's comparable to the stats. If you're serious about the guitar but don't have a lot of dosh, you could do a lot worse than this.
I would say 4 and a 1/2, there is'nt that option 4 is too low so it can have a 5.

see other opinions ...

micro Alnico V
rosewood fingerboard

UTILIZATION

Light, comfortable, pleasant handle, ... nothing wrong for the price
Finishing really correct

SOUNDS

The violin is very good quality for the price, it's a Yamaha Poas for nothing.
Micro side, more than the entry level, but it is quite suitable for train home
With the humbucker split or not the two + simple, we're going from clean (a little loud tone of max.) For a more Classic Rock.
I changed the neck pickup DiMarzio DP186-a Cruiser with its slightly beefier and more acute fzutrés, the guitar very well supports this upgrade.

OVERALL OPINION

No surprises.
Ideal to start.
Very good value for money

2 micro simple
1 humbucker
Bridge: Floyd
22 frets

UTILIZATION

I use it mostly for rock or arpeggio.

K'accès the treble is a facilitated.

SOUNDS

This guitar is made more for rock and blues with a Peavey amp "vipyr. on the other hand not very good (I still absolutely correct) for the songs with which we would like to sing s'acconpagné.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it now since September 2009

I is not tried other models, just opinions on the internet and video.

Very good value for CETT guitar if you are a beginner or more.

Form: This is a copy of a stratum

Neck: 22 frets, rosewood

Pickups: 2 single coil (neck and bridge) and a humbucker for the bridge.

Controls: 5 position microphone, a knob to adjust volume and a knob for tone, one can draw from it to disable one of the two humbucker pickups of the bridge.

Aesthetics: It's a great guitar, the only thing I dislike is the logo "pacifica" written on the head, too big and the font I find it a little kitsch.

UTILIZATION

The handle is not unpleasant, the rear is painted on the VCX modeled, so that the hand slips less than a handle more roots.

The saddle on the other hand is not terrible, we begin to address the bendings, special attention must be that the strings do not leave their location.

Weight and shape is nothing to say, light guitar to play early, it is well balanced to play seated.

The luthier told me that the rule that the violin is very good for a guitar "entry level" but the tremolo is not that great, same for the switch, and wiring.

SOUNDS

If you start playing in a group, you quickly realize that in the pickups are not the height, clean it sounds like a toy compared to guitars to 600 euros. I ended up replacing the pickups with three Seymour Duncan, 200 providing euro budget (micro + maker) and I have a correct sound.

I use a Boss BD-2 and it sounds great, great show, for the blues-rock.

I found a pretty versatile guitar, the humbucker can be used to play rock and heavy that the neck or bridge for the blues. I play rock type 70s pacifica and holds the road well.

I would advise those who do not yet know to what style will move to make the metal or jazz better watch other models. It is well for pop-rock, rock, blues and punk rock.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three years. What I like most is that she is my first guitar, so I tell myself never to separate. It is easily "upgradeable" to those who have not the means to afford a guitar at 1000 euros to start, you can get a good guitar deadlines

What I like least the original pickups, but we do not necessarily realize at first I spent 2 years before the change.

I have not tried other models before buying it because I was a beginner.

With the experience I do not do it again this election because I picked up a guitar at 250 euros, because I did not know that I would become addicted to the guitar. If I knew that 3 years after I'd obsessed with playing, I would have taken a direct stratocaster mex. Otherwise, if you can not afford, or like me, you're not sure when you start to become a passionate guitarist, head over to the Pacifica.

It is a made in indonesia, standard vibrato bridge. The neck is 24 frets properly equipped in 3 pickups, a humbucker and two singles, 5 positions on the dial, a one puch pull on the tone control.

UTILIZATION

Channel pleasant, the guitar is well made, it is a copy of a stratum with a cutout for easy support of the forearm. For sound, this guitar makes a newbie to all its weapons without seeming ridiculous distance away. Qualitatively it is at the top, the pickups are a little above medium is not my favorite sound. The tone knob is a little too loose on mine. But everything else is in good order with a value for money over a Mexican Start! Right after when you type Fender USA ...

SOUNDS

I put it in a pro studio, she has undergone a lot of mod, esthetics and Micro. It happens everywhere, every way, I use a pedalboard pod xt live so I pull almost all the sounds ... Of course it is pointed in any field, but goes well everywhere in the background.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 2 years, no worries. I like value for money, I do not like the original pickups that lack thicknesses and punch but at 200 euros ... It is a great deal!
