Review: A very good quality electric guitar ideal for beginners and above. - My son wanted an electric guitar and this is his first. I looked at other makes, some significantly cheaper than this one. The reviews on this one tended to be very good and better than for the others and better than some more expensive. It is a Yamaha. That usually means good quality. It looks and feels like good quality. It does look well made. It is a very nice looking guitar. More importantly it does sound good as well. My son is delighted with it. I would say that this is an excellent guitar for a beginner or an intermediate. Recommended. UPDATE. When buying this guitar, I would recommend buying a good set of strings. The ones that come with the guitar are ok but not great and do not really last. All were replaced within a month or so. My son remains delighted with this guitar.
Review: Great for a women with small hands - Buy this electric Yamaha guitar if you are a beginner. Do not look elsewhere as you will be wasting your time, this guitar was obviously made for beginners. It is immaculate out of the box but needed tuning which was not a problem. It stays in tune too, no need for constant retuning. The neck is narrow, great for a 5ft 2in women with small hands. The strings are slim and close meaning it is very easy to produce accurate chords first time as opposed to the acoustic guitar (thicker strings,far apart, high fretboard) I was using which I found very difficult to get to grips with and painful on the fingertips due to the wider neck and high strings you have to apply more pressure to the string to produce an accurate chord. I bought a yamaha F310 acoustic guitar in September 2015 and was totally unaware of the intricate details one needs to know before purchasing a guitar as a beginner. Many will advise to buy a guitar depending on the type of music you want to play, (heavy mental or rock equals electric guitar and amp) (blues, country or folk equals acoustic guitar no amp). This may be true but before you can play anything you need to master the chords. This electric guitar is by far the easiest to learn on. If you want a guitar that is very easy to practice on then this is the guitar for you, especially if you have smaller hands. I really struggled with the acoustic guitar and found I could not practice for more than 10 minutes. With this guitar I am able to practice for over 2 hours, no problems, no sore fingers and no boredom. No need for an amp with this guitar either if you are a beginner, its not really necessary at this stage. I would highly recommend this guitar to anyone as it is not that heavy and very comfortable to get to grips with. The Yamaha Pacifica 012 really is a joy to practice on as a beginner due to its ease of use and Yamaha guitars are always of a high quality too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Im a complete beginner with this, i can see from the photo that there is no whammy bar with the guitar. Can you buy this separate and it just fits on?**
A: The whammy bar comes with it,  along with instructions for setting it up. Don't know why it's not shown in the photo.

**Q: Hi. The dimensions of this guitar should be 108cm x 4.5cm, wheras my new one is 100cm x 4cm only. Does that mean mine isnt full size?**
A: It is classed as full size, most yamaha guitars are slightly smaller than your more expensive models but doesnt make any different in sound and style of the guitar,only gripe i had with this model was the strings it comes with easily fixed tho bought ernie ball medium gauge strings sorted, hope this helps you !

**Q: How is the packaging ? Come with a padded bag ? Risk of damage ?**
A: Hi there,If you buy from us we will pack this really well inside the original Yamaha guitar box and inside another outer box.We will also give it a professional setup before dispatch too, and delivery is next working day when the order is processed before 2pm.It does not come with a case but we do sell ones that will fit.Kind Regards,Rachel LongstoneSales & Customer CareRich Tone Music

**Q: return accepted or not**
A: I would contact Amazon to help with advise as I've never had to return any items before so I wouldn't know - if it's from a specific seller then I'd contact them

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 23 years later; going back to Pacifica
*by E***K on 2 August 2019*

My first proper guitar was a Pacifica and I found it very versatile with its 5 way pick up selecor for getting different tones and sounds. Everything thing from lsush warm tones, jazzy tones, and with the humbucker and a bit of distortion great for hard rock. I switched to a Les Paul which I enjoyed for many years, but after fracturing my spine in 2 places and the recovery, it was just too heavy to stand and play any more, so I decided to get a lighter body guitar and having had experience with Pacifa, went back and got a new one. There's very little bad to say about the. They have tweaked the design slightly over the years, for the better. My only complaint would be that the whammy bar is a bit stiff; not as malleable, (dare I say 'not as fun'?) as it used to be, but I rarely ned to use it so it's a minor issue. Great guitar.
