Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Transparent Black PAC612VIIFM is a right-handed, solid-body Yamaha with an alder body, maple top, bolt-on maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. Two Seymour Duncan SSL-1 single-coils cover the neck and middle positions, while the bridge humbucker can be coil-split using the push-pull master tone knob. A five-way pickup switch keeps the controls familiar. The Wilkinson VS50 tremolo is matched with a Graph Tech nut and Grover locking tuners for stable tuning, and the neck carries 22 medium frets across a 25.5-inch scale.
