Hello, had this guitar for a few weeks. Since day one I had problems with the A and E string buzzing (specifically A). I checked the truss rod, adjusted action and even tried shimming the nut.
Do you guys know if using 10 gauge strings could help? The fret buzz isn't that noticeable through amp so it isn't the biggest concern. Just wondering.
He’s been playing mine and getting better than me! I’m a Yamaha fan so for his first guitar I got the PACs+12 standard. What a great guitar.
Next to my 1998 american deluxe Strat wit Lindy fralin blues special pickups.
The Pacifica is a killer guitar. Great pickups, plays great. Doesn’t obviously “out Strat” mine but it sure does more. My Strat is a a killer Strat that I’ve played a ton of gigs since I bought it new in 98, but I’d have zero problem swapping them
Hey everyone!
After owning Fender, Gibson, etc.. I decided to go with something new. I feel like you don't get what you pay for anymore with those brands (quality control has gone downhill). Some of my best musical equipment has been my Yamaha E-Drums (DTX6K5) and my Yamaha Acoustic.
Took the plunge and got a brand new Yamaha Standard Plus with a setup.
Already in love with it! What a freaking nice guitar.. the feel, the playability, the tone from the Rupert Neve pickups.. everything is incredible and punches FAR above its weight. Couldn't stop playing it the day I got it...
Beyond satisfied with my purchase and hope it lasts me years to come.
I painstakingly read over many comments and posts within this sub which helped seal the deal so wanted to thank everyone!
I'm part of the group now, too😆
I got the Pacifica 012 secondhand last weekend for 100 euros. But I had to do quite a bit of work on it; it had apparently been sitting in a closet for a few years🙈 I spent two days fixing it up, and now I'm totally happy with it🤗 It's my first electric guitar; I'd played acoustic guitar before. But it's so much fun learning to play it!
Do you guys have any recommendations for me on what else I should upgrade on the guitar?
I’m also currently looking for a suitable amp for home use. I came across the Harley Benton DNAFX AmP20. Does anyone have experience with this amp and can tell me if it’s okay for a beginner?
