For an inexpensive yet high-quality introduction to the world of rock guitar, you’ll not find better value than the Pacifica 012. Modelled on the best-selling Pacifica 112, the new, even more affordable 012 has a similarly contoured double-cutaway body, and the firepower of a raunchy bridge-position humbucker plus two clear-toned single-coil pickups. The five-position pickup switch allows selection of those classic ‘in-between’ sounds, while the vibrato bridge is a well-proven vintage design with six individually adjustable saddles for accurate intonation and a slinky set-up. Tonewoods rosewood, maple, and Agathis/Nato used throughout the construction giving a balanced sound with even and clear response from both the highs and the lows important for developing good technique from the start. Pick-ups (humbucker and single coils) offering a sound to suit any style, you'll never get bored: Rock, funk, blues, country, jazz are all possible with the click of the 5 position selector switch and a simple turn of the easily accessible tone and volume controls. Quality tuning gearing - for simple, stable and reliable tuning. Neck Slim fast neck expertly contorted for easy accurate playing and comfort. Even and accurate fret positioning means that it sounds in tune as you play further down the neck. It's also important to be in tune when learning as a group.
