Yamaha Pacifica 012

Great value guitar, much better than the usual Fender lookalikes that come in the starter sets. Good quality finish and a humbucker as well! 5 position selector switch, tremolo arm - all works properrly and the guitar arrived with a decent setup. Very happy with the purchase. Only small gripe is that the tone knob doesn't really do much but this is common on most low cost units. I wouldn't go for the one in the Yamaha boxed set 'cos their practice amp doesn't have a provision for a CD input which you'll need if you're a beginner like me. Got it from Absolute Music whcih was a good buying experience and a really good deal.
