Yamaha Pacifica 112 V Old Violin Sunburst Elektrisk guitar

Stage-Ready ST-Style Electric Guitar with Alnico V Pickups

The Yamaha Pacifica 112V OVS is a class-leading ST-style electric guitar built around an alder body and a bolt-on maple neck. Alnico V pickups in an HSS configuration deliver warm, clear tone, while a push-pull coil-split switch expands the voice. The Old Violin Sunburst gloss polyurethane finish gives this model a classic, road-ready look. The 112V combines no-compromise construction with stage-ready spec.

Alnico V Pickups and Push-Pull Coil Split

What separates this model from entry-level competitors is the use of Alnico V magnets across all three pickup positions for a warmer, clearer tone than typical ceramic designs. A push-pull coil split unlocks authentic single-coil voices from the bridge humbucker, giving players seven distinct tonal options. The vintage-style tremolo with heavy block saddles adds singing sustain.

Alder Body for Balanced Tone

The alder body delivers the balanced midrange and clear low-end that defines classic ST-style instruments. A gloss polyurethane finish protects the wood while giving the Old Violin Sunburst a deep, polished look. With no separate top wood, the alder speaks directly through the finish.

• Body Material: Alder — balanced midrange and clear low-end
• Finish: Polished gloss polyurethane — durable, stage-ready shine that protects the wood
• Top Material: None — the alder speaks directly through the finish

Bolt-On Maple Neck with Rosewood Fingerboard

A bolt-on maple neck with a satin polyurethane finish gives the 112V a fast, smooth feel suited to both chord work and lead lines. The rosewood fingerboard adds warmth to the attack, while a 350 mm radius and 22 medium frets offer comfortable bending.

• Scale Length: 648 mm — standard ST-style tension and snap
• Fingerboard Radius: 350 mm — comfortable for chord shapes and bends
• Fret Count: 22 medium frets — gives a full two-octave range on every string

HSS Pickup Configuration with Vintage Tremolo

Three Alnico V pickups — single-coil in the neck and middle, humbucker at the bridge — cover everything from glassy cleans to driving rock tones. The five-position lever switch combined with the push-pull coil split gives players seven distinct voices.

• Pickup Configuration: HSS with Alnico V magnets — covers everything from glassy cleans to driving rock tones
• Controls: Master Volume, Master Tone with push-pull coil split — seven distinct voices from a five-position switch
• Bridge: Vintage-style tremolo with block saddles — smooth vibrato with singing sustain

Ideal for Beginners, Intermediates, and Working Players

The 112V OVS is the right choice for beginners and intermediate players who want a guitar that grows with them rather than one they quickly outgrow. The HSS pickup layout and coil-split make it equally useful for blues, rock, indie, funk, and pop styles. Working musicians will appreciate the road-ready build quality and tonal flexibility.

The Yamaha Pacifica Legacy

The Pacifica line was designed to give every player access to a great first guitar, combining Yamaha's renowned build quality with stage-ready playability. The 100-series models — including the 112V — offer a range of pickup, fingerboard, and finish options. Today, the 112V remains one of the most recommended electric guitars in its segment.
