Yamaha - Pacifica SC Professional Breeze Metallic Blue

The Pacifica SC Professional Breeze Metallic Blue is part of Yamaha's modern vision for the high-end Pacifica range. Developed for guitarists looking for a precise, expressive and perfectly balanced instrument, this Professional version benefits from handcrafted Japanese manufacturing, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, guaranteeing a rigorous level of finish and control.

The alder body, designed using Acoustic Design technology, has been optimised to improve vibration flow and the instrument's dynamic response. This approach results in a naturally resonant guitar with an excellent balance between clarity, sustain and definition, while maintaining comfortable ergonomics thanks to a carefully sculpted shape. The Breeze Metallic Blue finish adds an elegant, contemporary touch, perfectly in tune with the visual identity of this new generation of Pacifica SC guitars.

The maple neck, with its Rounded-C profile, has been given a satin finish in a customised shade to ensure a smooth, natural feel in the hand. Combined with a rosewood fingerboard with a compound radius from 9.5 to 12 inches, it offers consistent comfort along the entire length of the neck, whether playing chords or more technical phrases. The medium jumbo stainless steel frets guarantee long life and even playability, ideal for intensive use.

The electronics are based on an S-H configuration incorporating Reflectone pickups, developed in collaboration with Rupert Neve Designs. These pickups are distinguished by their highly faithful reproduction of the signal, with excellent note separation and a particularly sensitive response to touch. The Focus Switch, integrated into the tone control, acts like a passive boost by accentuating the midrange and bass, offering extra density without altering dynamics.

The hardware uses top-of-the-range Gotoh components, with locking tuners for excellent tuning stability and a compensated bridge with three brass bridges for sustain and precision. The guitar also benefits from I.R.A. treatment, which simulates the natural ageing of the materials for a more open and immediate playing feel from the very first notes. The whole set comes in a hard case, ready for transport and the stage.
