Yamaha PACIFICA112VMX Electric Guitar with Maple Fingerboard and Alnico V HSS Pickups
The Yamaha PACIFICA112VMX is the Yellow Natural Satin version of the maple-fingerboard Pacifica 112, an HSS electric guitar with an alder body, bolt-on maple neck and Alnico V pickups. Unlike the gloss-finished colours of the PACIFICA112VM, the body of the 112VMX has a satin polyurethane finish, and Yamaha fits it with a black pickguard.
It is a sensible first electric guitar that remains useful as skills grow. The single-coil and humbucker pickups, together with a push-pull coil split, cover clean, crunch and higher-gain sounds, while the 25-1/2" scale and vintage-style tremolo suit a wide range of styles from pop and funk to rock.
Key Features
PACIFICA112VMX in Yellow Natural Satin
The 112VMX pairs a Yellow Natural Satin body finish with a satin-finished maple neck and a black pickguard. The satin finish gives the guitar a natural, low-sheen look that sets it apart from the gloss colours of the standard 112VM.
Maple Fingerboard
The bolt-on maple neck carries a maple fingerboard with a 13-3/4" (350 mm) radius and 22 medium frets. Its 41 mm nut width and moderate neck depth make chords and single-note lines comfortable for most hands.
Alnico V HSS Pickup Layout
Two Alnico V single-coil pickups sit in the neck and middle positions, with an Alnico V humbucker at the bridge. The 5-position lever switch gives access to classic single-coil sounds as well as a fuller humbucker tone for driven playing.
Push-Pull Coil Split
Pulling up the Master Tone knob splits the bridge humbucker for a lighter, brighter single-coil character. It adds extra tonal options to the HSS layout without any additional switches on the body.
Alder Body
The PACIFICA112VMX body is made from alder, a tonewood widely used for its balanced response. The double-cutaway Pacifica shape gives comfortable access to the upper frets.
Vintage-Style Tremolo with Block Saddles
The vintage-style tremolo bridge with block saddles lets you add vibrato and pitch dips with the supplied screw-in arm. Individual saddles allow string height and intonation to be set up for each string.
Die-Cast Tuners and 10.5 mm String Spacing
Die-cast tuning machines handle tuning duties, and the bridge uses 10.5 mm string spacing. Yamaha lists a .009–.042 string gauge, a light set that is easy on the fingers for newer players.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the PACIFICA112VMX differ from the PACIFICA112VM?
Both have an alder body, maple neck, maple fingerboard, Alnico V HSS pickups and a push-pull coil split. The 112VMX is the Yellow Natural Satin version with a satin body finish, whereas the 112VM colours use a gloss polyurethane finish.
How does it differ from the PACIFICA112V?
The PACIFICA112V shares the same HSS Alnico V electronics and coil split, but uses a rosewood fingerboard. The 112VMX has a maple fingerboard.
What does the push-pull coil split do?
Pulling the Master Tone knob splits the bridge humbucker, giving a thinner, brighter single-coil style sound. Pushing it back down returns to the full humbucker.
Is the PACIFICA112VMX suitable for beginners?
Yes. It has a comfortable neck, light .009–.042 strings and simple controls, while the HSS pickups and coil split give room to explore different styles as you progress.
Does it come with a case?
No. Yamaha does not list a case for the PACIFICA112VMX, so a gig bag, cable and amplifier need to be purchased separately.
