Not as rounded at the edges as the Squier but an equally great package to own
Color: Metallic Blue Style: Guitar & Amp Bundle
This review is based on the package deal for the Yamaha Pacifica and comparing it with others like the Fender Squier both comparable in price and performance. If you’re looking for the best package, you should consider all options. Both the Yamaha and the Fender are awesome packages and as a package, they are both a draw. The Pacifica comes well packaged including a paper sleeve over the strings for protection. This guitar is a tad bit thicker and heavier than the Squier Affinity by Fender yet has a smaller body. Like other models, Yamaha provides a tapered front and back for comfort. The Pacifica is not as rounded at the edges like the Squier Affinity. The Pacifica body is shapelier with a longer extended horn and more robust center curves. The less rounded edges of the Yamaha make it easier to play sitting down as it hugs the legs better and doesn’t slide down like the Strats. The Squier Affinity is a more rectangular shape with less pronounced curves and a smaller horn traditional for a Stratocaster. Both are beautiful to play and to look at so this is a real draw. The Pacifica does something the Fender Strats don’t do. The humbucker on the Yamaha actually responds to the tone control when the switch is in the position 5 setting. You can really boost the highs with a 10 tone setting using the HB position. Even at setting 4 where the middle pickup and the HB both are active, there is a noticeable treble boost with the maximum tone setting at 10. The Fender Stratocasters have an extra tone control, one for the neck single coil and the other for the middle single coil. Neither tone control on the Strats work with either the single coil bridge pickup or the HB because Fender feels the proximity to the bridge where highs are naturally accentuated and the nature of the HB pickup doesn’t need a treble boost. The Fender Strats have the bridge single coil pickup angled down at the high E string so the treble is boosted only at the treble strings since the contacts with the treble strings are closer to the bridge. Yamaha defied the wisdom of Fender and simplified the tone control to only one control to handle all three pickups simultaneously, including the HB. Hats off to Yamaha since the treble boost is always a welcome advantage. The 15watt amp is perfect for the job. It is not a professional grade amp but more than suitable for home. It is the most compact and equally powerful amp as any other in a package deal. The Pacifica package is a superbly crafted package you will be glad to own. I am an avid Yamaha fan and this Pacifica will not disappoint. As an owner of a Yamaha piano and two Yamaha acoustic guitars, none, including Fender comes close in my opinion to the quality and sound of Yamaha. Yamaha unlike any other make detail their priority. The metallic blue is as beautiful to look at as it is to play. This package except for a low quality cable is everything you will need. Remember the Swiff Audio wireless transmitter and receiver for less than $80 will resolve the cable issue and make playing this guitar a real pleasure. ... show more

Terrific-looking guitar that plays better than I expected
Color: Old Violin Sunburst Style: Guitar & Amp Bundle
I'm a newbie, and this is my only guitar ever. So I don't really have another comparable. But I'll say this: In terms of build quality and looks, this guitar is outstanding. The sunburst color is even better than in the pictures. It's rich dark shade of brownish red. Looks exquisite. The guitar was really out of tune when it arrived. So much so that the tuner it came with had no idea what I string I was plucking. So it wasn't able to help much. It was only when a friend of mine heard it that he realized how out of tune it was. He used his amp to tune the guitar. Since then, it's been holding up fine. I've played the guitar every day for the past three weeks, and have only had to tune it once. It sounds good (but much better when my expert friend plays). The amp is adequately powerful. Clean and Drive are all the effects I need. The learning DVD is very helpful to start with. I have recently purchased Rocksmith on Xbox in order to take me to the next level. This guitar was a great purchase and has given me something to look forward to. I've only had it for 3 weeks, but so far it's been brilliant in all aspects. I don't foresee ever outgrowing the guitar or the amp in this lifetime. Perhaps in the next, if I try to learn as a teenager. ... show more

Great guitar!
This is one great guitar! As a beginner, I cannot claim to know much about guitars, but I did do my research. Yamaha make great musical instruments and this guitar is recommended as a great beginner guitar by several places, including About. The package has everything you need to get started. THE GOOD: The guitar - One great instrument. The build feels solid and not at all cheap. The strings are close the the fret board which is great. The tuners are very smooth and feel good. The guitar also has 3 pickups and 5 positions which allow you to change up the sound of he guitar from rock to jazz. Basically, this is a really good guitar. And it has two nobs for volume and tone. The Amplifier - This is a good beginner amplifier. It is small and has 15 watts. It has two channels: Clean and Dirty. Plenty nobs for us beginners to play with: gain, dirty volume, clean volume, treble, middle, bass. Also has a quarter inch headphone jack. Despite what majority might think, 15 watts is enough for just about anything you'll be doing. The 15 watts allows you to turn up the gain all the way up and keep the volume down and still have it sound good. The electric tuner - a nice little add-on for beginners. The DVD - great place as any to start. Goes over the basics and teaches several chords. Other - comes with extra strings :) THE BAD: The guitar - none at all. The Amp - the only bad thing with it (for what it is), is that the headphones jack is a 1/4 inch jack so most of us with 3.5mm standard headphone will either need to get new headphones or adapter to use it. But it is no big deal in my opinion. The Guitar Cable - it is one cheap cable. Mine broke after 4 days. I also noticed that in the dvd that was provided, the instructor didn't use the cable that was provided but a monster cable, which I found to be funny. You can get a monster cable for pretty cheap here on Amazon, so again, nothing too serious. Order one when you order the guitar so you don't have to wait like I do. The Guitar Strap - again pretty cheap. It is like one of those run of the mill nylon straps that you see. I am going to invest in a better one but this one will do for most. On a side note, and this is with all guitars. Invest in peg locks. They will prevent the strap from coming off the pegs on the guitar. When putting on my guitar the strap slipped off the peg, but luckily I was holding the guitar very firmly. Again, this is true for all guitars and not just this one. Bottom line: Great guitar, great package, great buy. I am happy with it. ... show more

Great guitar package for a beginner!
Color: Old Violin Sunburst Style: Guitar & Amp Bundle
I'm totally new to guitars and didn't have anything so figured a package deal was the way to go. the Yamaha Pacifica was the guitar everyone online recommended to get for someone starting out. Best bang for the buck. I have to say I fully agree. Even though this is considered budget, it seems to be very well built and plays well. The included Yamaha amp is ok but I think if I were to do it over again I would probably have bought everything separately and got a used Boss Katana mini amp as it's much more feature rich - all for a comparable price. The Yamaha amp sounds good on clean but not so much with gain/ distortion. The included 1/4 TRS cable is crap. So much feedback. Bought B0DBQF7669 and much better! And for those complaining about the scratch marks - it's just packaging cellophane they put over the pick guard area. Peel it off like you would any other new device like a new cell phone..... Edit: One of the strings snapped after 2 months. Replaced with Ernie Ball and followed justinguitar's tutorial on how to restring. Wasn't too bad even without the stringing tool. Still a great guitar though. ... show more

Acoustic to Electric...Finally!
Color: Metallic Blue Style: Guitar & Amp Bundle
Since I started my guitar journey playing acoustic guitars, I am not near as qualified as some of the other reviewers who are more experienced with an electric. I received my beautiful metallic blue guitar today and it was even better than I imagined. Everything was as advertised. No surprises. Had everything hooked up and ready to play within half an hour from the time UPS dropped it off. This guitar is solidly built and much easier on the fingertips than my Yamaha or Takamine acoustic guitars. If you are asking yourself the question of whether or not to start with an acoustic or an electric, choose the electric. Acoustic guitars require more hand pressure so learning your first chords won't be quite as torturous with this one. I do agree with others that a good set of Ernie Ball or D'Addario strings would make a positive difference but the Yamaha strings work just fine for learning purposes. If you have folks in the house who don't like the noise from the amp, invest in decent pair of headphones so you can practice without bothering them. You can't go wrong with this deal in any case so peace be the journey my friends! ... show more

Best Product for the Price
I was really surprised on the craftsmanship on this guitar because of the cheap price but the guitar is well built and the amp sounds great! I also have to give Kudos to ACE PHOTO for shipping this out to me. I am a soldier that returned from Afghanistan and I order this before I came home and it arrived before I was able to sign for it so it was returned to seller and when I contacted ACE they shipped it back out on their dollar and it came to me super fast. As for the sound my buddy plays guitar on weekends with a band and he made this Yamaha sound like a Les Paul! I know now if he can make it sound good some day after I learn I will make it sound the same. Came with everything you need to get started I mean everything to include picks. I agree with the strap on the other review it looks like the strap wont last long but this is my only complaint with the product and that is not even a problem now. This is the second "All in one" kit that I have bought over the past 4 years because I lost the other kit during my second deployment...dont ask lol and this one was better by a far shot and was the same price. ... show more

Yamaha Gigmaker Guitar Package
I've been wanting to play the electric guitar for a while, but I was unsure about what accessories to get considering I was used to just playing with an acoustic. My choices were between the Fender Starcaster and the Yamaha Gigmaker. This package is $100.00 more than the Fender Starcaster, but I spent hours online looking through reviews and videos on reliability, sound quality, and ease of use. If you're looking for quality that rivals the Yamaha Gigmaker, I would definitely get the Fender package. It includes a few more accessories that I would have liked, but the Yamaha PAC012 has been on my mind for quite a while. If this is your first time playing guitar, you will not be disappointed with the quality of the Pacifica or the amplifier that comes with the package. The neck of the guitar is easy to wrap around, even for my ten year old sister. I just really love this guitar, and I hope I can continue to play it for years to come. To my surprise, the tuner that comes with the package is great. I have yet to view the DVD that comes with the package, but I will update the review as I view it. The guitar case is very durable and thick, but it doesn't have padding. It works for me though. The guitar strap is durable, even for heavy usage. The extra set of strings are nice as well. All in all, if you're beginning, this is a fantastic deal. I was willing to pay a little bit extra for quality, and it was more than worth it. ... show more
