Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Crafted in Japan, the black metallic Pacifica SC Professional PACP11SM is a chambered-alder, HS electric guitar built around Yamaha’s Acoustic Design technology. Its Reflectone neck single-coil and bridge humbucker are selected with a three-way switch; the Focus Switch adds lower-mid body and presence to the bridge voice. A custom-tinted satin rounded-C maple neck joins a 9.5- to 12-inch compound-radius maple fingerboard for chord work near the nut and cleaner bends higher up. A hardshell case and certificate of authenticity are included.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want a compound-radius maple fingerboard for chords near the nut and bends higher up.

- Recording or live setups using the guitar’s onboard HS pickups and Focus Switch.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; the guitar is specified as right handed.
