Yamaha Pacifica PAC612VIIX Electric Guitar; Yellow Natural Stain

I like getting a new condition, but used guitar, because there will something to find and fix and then I'll have a great guitar that is just like new. This one had a bridge that never been set up. So it took some time to get it all just right. Now the action, radius, and intonation are all perfect; the tremolo works great, up and down, and the arm holds it's position.Not everyone wants to buy an afternoon project, but I like to save a little money and end up with a good quality guitar that is setup perfectly.

This Guitar is excellent. Nice mix of pickups so if you want that clean single coil Strat sound, you can have it. If you want the Gibson humbucker sound, you have it. And then there's a bunch in-between. The cutaway is great too, no issues on that front. If there's anything particular I can say about the guitar though, it's that the action is legitimately perfect. You cannot beat this on the action. I've played some expensive guitars and they felt like junk in comparison.Cons: I find the cable plug gets loose EASY. Swap the washer on that if you can find the size for it. Maybe put a little bit of rubber on it to keep it from getting loose. Not a major complaint by any means, but something I've noticed and had to correct.I would recommend this guitar to anyone who has been playing for a few years and really wants something solid that will cover a wide range of playstyles. I would go so far as to say it can be a solid studio piece if you needed it to be. I'd recommend it to a beginner guitarist too, but I'd warn that you should play a Squire or an Epiphone entry level guitar for a year first, just so you can see the difference. You shouldn't start on this thing, it would be cheating.Long story short, this guitar has ruined my appreciation for most Fender and Gibsons I've played and owned. I barely play my Gibson anymore, and every time I pick up the Yamaha I feel like my SG is judging me.
