MGR/Cthepunkkid « Yamaha Pacifica 112 »
Published on 05/03/02 at 15:00I 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.
