PROS: - Excellent build quality. The neck has excellent finish. The body is sturdy and doesn't feel cheap at all. The fret markers are smooth, with correctly sanded edges so that there's no parts jutting out. - The guitar has solid tone. Not as good as something in the >Rs. 25,000 range, but at or near best in class for the sub Rs. 25,000 range. - Looks great. I've gotten a lot of compliments for the guitar's premium looks (though I know that looks aren't the most important for an instrument). CONS: - Lacks some of the features that other guitars have (such as multiple tone knobs per pickup). - Minor grievance is that the tuners, while very functional, aren't as great in build quality as the rest of the guitar. Overall, if you're a beginner looking for a guitar that can serve you for quite some time, and won't necessitate an upgrade any time soon, this is the one for you. Review: Best beginner guitar - The quality, finish is very good. Complete beginner here, this is my first guitar. Looks great. ## Features - ๐‚๐ฅ๐š๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ ๐’๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ญ-๐’๐ญ๐ฒ๐ฅ๐ž ๐๐จ๐๐ฒ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐‚๐จ๐ฆ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐๐ฅ๐š๐ฒ: The PAC012 features a double-cutaway Strat-style body, offering easy upper fret access and a lightweight, balanced feel for beginner-friendly playability. - ๐‡๐’๐’ ๐๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ฎ๐ฉ ๐‚๐จ๐ง๐Ÿ๐ข๐ ๐ฎ๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐•๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ฅ๐ž ๐“๐จ๐ง๐ž๐ฌ: Equipped with one humbucker and two single-coil pickups, this guitar covers a wide range of tones ideal for rock, blues, jazz, and clean pop sounds. - ๐Œ๐š๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ž ๐๐ž๐œ๐ค ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐‘๐จ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฐ๐จ๐จ๐ ๐…๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ž๐ซ๐›๐จ๐š๐ซ๐: Combining a smooth maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, the guitar ensures fast, comfortable play for beginners and intermediate players alike. - ๐•๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐š๐ ๐ž-๐’๐ญ๐ฒ๐ฅ๐ž ๐“๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐จ๐ฅ๐จ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ ๐ž: Add expressive vibrato to your playing with the vintage-style tremolo system, perfect for dynamic leads and creative playing. - ๐ˆ๐๐ž๐š๐ฅ ๐„๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ-๐‹๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ ๐„๐ฅ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐œ ๐†๐ฎ๐ข๐ญ๐š๐ซ: Designed for students and aspiring guitarists, the PAC012 delivers excellent tone, playability, and Yamahaโ€™s reliable craftsmanship at an affordable price. - ๐’๐ฅ๐ž๐ž๐ค ๐†๐ฅ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฒ ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค ๐…๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ก: The bold black finish gives the PAC012 a sleek, modern look that stands out on stage while maintaining Yamahaโ€™s signature quality and durability. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00123DQT6 | | Back Material Type | Agathis Wood | | Best Sellers Rank | #624 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #2 in Solid-Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Agathis | | Body Material Type | Agathis | | Brand | Yamaha | | Brand Name | Yamaha | | Colour | Black | | Country of Origin | Indonesia | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 923 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Rosewood | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04957812059763 | | Guitar Bridge System | Fixed | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Importer Contact Information | Yamaha Music India Pvt.
