Product details
Seymour Duncan Tone. Wilkinson Control. Performance-Ready Pacifica.
The Yamaha PACIFICA612VIIX brings premium electronics and dependable stage hardware to the comfortable Pacifica platform. Its resonant alder body, bolt-on maple neck and rosewood fingerboard provide a familiar, balanced feel for recording, rehearsal and live performance.
A carefully selected Seymour Duncan HSS pickup set moves from detailed single-coil cleans to a powerful bridge-humbucker voice, with push-pull coil splitting for additional textures. A Wilkinson VS50 tremolo, Graph Tech TUSQ nut and Grover locking tuners create a stable, expressive setup suited to demanding players.
Key Features
Seymour Duncan HSS pickups for professional tonal range
SSL-1 single-coils in the neck and middle positions deliver clear, vintage-inspired detail, with a reverse-wound/reverse-polarity middle pickup for useful noise cancellation in combined positions. The TB-14 bridge humbucker adds focused output, punch and sustain.
Push-pull coil split expands the bridge-pickup palette
Pull the Master Tone control to split the TB-14 bridge humbucker for a brighter, leaner response. Together with the five-way selector, this gives the 612VIIX a wide range of clean, rhythm and lead voices.
Wilkinson VS50 tremolo for smooth expressive control
The Wilkinson VS50 6 tremolo supports subtle shimmer, chord dips and more pronounced pitch movement with a smooth feel and precise adjustability for stage and studio use.
Grover locking tuners make string changes fast and secure
Locking machine heads reduce the amount of string winding required at the post, helping simplify restringing and supporting consistent tuning when the guitar is prepared and adjusted correctly.
Graph Tech TUSQ nut supports consistent string movement
The precision TUSQ nut provides a consistent contact point and works with the Wilkinson bridge and locking tuners as part of the guitar’s performance-focused hardware system.
Alder body with familiar Pacifica neck geometry
A contoured alder body, satin-finished maple neck, 25.5-inch scale, 13.75-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium frets create an adaptable feel for chord work, controlled bends and fast lead playing.
FAQ
Q. Who is the PACIFICA612VIIX best suited to?
It suits experienced players, working musicians and serious home-studio users who want a versatile Pacifica with recognised aftermarket-brand pickups and performance-focused hardware installed at the factory.
Q. Which Seymour Duncan pickups does it use?
It uses an SSL-1 single-coil at the neck, an SSL-1 RwRp single-coil in the middle and a TB-14 humbucker at the bridge. This HSS combination covers clear cleans, detailed rhythm sounds and powerful leads.
Q. What does the push-pull coil split do?
Pulling the Tone knob splits the bridge humbucker for a brighter, lower-output response. Push it down to return to the fuller TB-14 humbucker voice.
Q. How does the 612VIIX differ from the 112V?
The 612VIIX upgrades the pickup and hardware package with Seymour Duncan pickups, a Wilkinson VS50 tremolo, Graph Tech TUSQ nut and Grover locking tuners. Both retain the versatile HSS Pacifica concept and push-pull coil split.
Q. Is the PACIFICA612VIIX the same as the Pacifica Professional?
No. The 612VIIX is a premium Pacifica 600-series model. Pacifica Professional models belong to a separate, higher-tier Japanese-made range with different construction, electronics and specifications.
