A premium Pacifica with a quilted maple top, Alnico pickups, and versatile tone for modern players.
- Quilted maple veneer top adds premium visual depth and refined character

- HSS configuration delivers wide tonal flexibility from clean to high-gain sounds
- Vintage-style tremolo bridge allows expressive pitch control
- Translucent Black finish highlights the quilted maple figuring with modern visual depth
The Yamaha PAC212VQM builds on the Pacifica platform with a quilted maple top, offering a more refined, high-end look alongside proven performance. Its quilted maple veneer adds strong visual impact while keeping the player-focused comfort, balance, and versatility that define the Pacifica series.
Equipped with Alnico V pickups, the PAC212VQM delivers improved articulation, warmth, and dynamic response compared to standard ceramic pickup configurations. The HSS layout combines the clarity and snap of single-coils with the thicker output of a bridge humbucker, allowing the guitar to cover everything from clean playing to heavier styles.
The alder body keeps the instrument balanced and resonant, while the smooth maple neck and rosewood fingerboard create a comfortable and approachable playing experience for practice, recording, rehearsals, and live performance.
The vintage-style tremolo bridge provides expressive control for subtle vibrato and pitch movement while maintaining the familiar Pacifica playing feel.
The Translucent Black finish gives the PAC212VQM a modern, stage-ready appearance while allowing the quilted maple figuring to remain visible beneath the finish.
