« Yamaha Pacifica »

I bought my Yamaha Pacifica at the Guitar Center in Brea, it was my first guitar, and it's great. I only paid $129.99 for it, and it is really worth it.

I like how unlike a normal yamaha guitar, it has two single coil pickups and one humbucker so that i don't get that annoying humming sound. What i also like is how i can get a sharp tone on my solos, but also get a deep palm mute without having to change settings. I also like the fact that it looks just like a Fender Stratocaster, but it costs less. Also I like the height of the frets because they are low enough to make soloing easy, but high enough so that I can feel some resistance when I press down on the strings.

The only thing I don't like about the guitar is that it come with a plastic cover for my input jack to screw into, and it broke easily, so I had to replace it with a metal one. Also I don't like the fact that it only has two knobs, I would prefer something with three knobs, maybe an extra tone just to change things up a little.

The construction is good, after my many times of taking it apart, I haven't noticed any problem with wiring, or connection, or resistors. I don't what kind of pickups are used in it, but they sound good. I've had my Pacifica for two years now, and I plan to use it for another five because it is constucted pretty solid.

I feel that this guitar is a bargain at a price of $129.99 because I've had Fenders, and they don't sound as good as the Yamaha Pacifica I have now. I really think that
