Yamaha Pacifica 112 VMX — Satin-Finished ST With Alnico V Tone

The Yamaha Pacifica 112 VMX Yellow Natural Satin is the maple-fingerboard version of the acclaimed 112V line, combining an alder body and satin Yellow Natural finish for a look made for the stage, but never flashy. Designed for players seeking one guitar capable of handling clean arpeggios, punchy rhythms, and melodic leads, this model sits in a sweet spot in Yamaha's accessible electric range. Expect a bolt-on maple neck and fingerboard for a brighter, faster attack than rosewood options.

What Sets the Pacifica 112 VMX Apart

Several features push this model above the standard 112V. One highlight is the maple fingerboard, offering a more articulate top end and a surface that feels quick under the fingers. A satin Yellow Natural finish reduces stage glare and feels smoother than gloss polyurethane seen on other Pacifica 100-series colors. The combination of Alnico V pickups in all three slots and a 1-ply black pickguard gives the 112 VMX a focused, modern voice in the Pacifica family.

Alder Body, Satin Finish — Built for Daily Playing

With alder's balanced resonance, this guitar provides a neutral canvas so the pickups deliver their full character.

• Body Material: Alder — balanced resonance that flatters both clean and overdriven tones
• Finish: Satin Polyurethane (Yellow Natural) — smooth to the touch, low glare on stage
• This model features a classic ST-style bolt-on neck for snappy response and easy maintenance.

Maple Neck and Fingerboard — Fast, Bright, Familiar

Maple-on-maple construction gives the instrument a clear, punchy attack, and the medium frets allow both open chords and lead lines with heavy bends.

• Scale Length: 648 mm — standard ST-scale tension for familiar string feel
• Fingerboard Radius: 350 mm — comfortable for chord work and lead playing
• Fret Count: 22 medium frets — enough range for upper-position soloing

HSS Pickups, Coil-Split, and Vintage Tremolo

Equipped with Alnico V magnets throughout, the 112 VMX delivers a warmer, clearer sound than models using ceramic pickups. The push-pull coil-split on the master tone knob transforms the bridge humbucker into a single coil whenever the song requires it.

• Pickup Configuration: HSS — Single Coil / Alnico V (neck and middle), Humbucker / Alnico V (bridge)
• Controls: Master Volume, Master Tone with Push-Pull Coil Split, 5-position lever switch
• The vintage-style tremolo with block saddles allows expressive pitch bends while maintaining tuning stability.

Who Should Play the Pacifica 112 VMX

Targeted at intermediate guitarists and progressing beginners, this instrument can handle clean pop, indie crunch, blues solos, and rock rhythms without needing to switch guitars. Those moving up from a starter pack will immediately notice the improvement brought by Alnico V pickups. For gigging musicians on a budget, the YRS-23 is roadworthy and versatile thanks to its coil-split feature. Many students, weekend players, and anyone seeking Yamaha's build quality with a distinct maple-board sound will find it a reliable all-rounder.

Yamaha Pacifica — A First Guitar That Lasts

Yamaha's Pacifica series stands out for offering quality and tone that go well beyond entry level.
