I bought this Yamaha Pacifica
I bought this Yamaha Pacifica PAC112V brand new for $201.49 + tax. The regular price is $309.99 + tax. Crazy, huh?

This particular Pacifica is made in Indonesia, has 2 single coil pickups, 1 humbucker pickup with coil splitting, one volume control, one tone control, a tremolo wiggle stick, and 22 frets. Heyoooooo you get it, you can look up all these basics at your favorite retailer. What am I giving you here? Insights ... the truth ... CONTENT, baby!
If you're thinking about getting a Fender Squier Stratocaster (Bullet or Affinity series) I'd think again. Bullet doesn't hold a candle to the Yamaha PAC112V, and as for the Affinity, well, it depends. I think the PAC112V is better, but I do like my Affinity strat (review here: UNBIASED Squier Affinity Stratocaster...) after doing a full setup.
So yeah, I like the PAC112V. (Besides that cumbersome name, but Yamaha isn't the only brand that doesn't know how to give guitars names.) Why do I like it? Because not only is Yamaha's quality control top notch (I didn't have to do anything to this guitar except set the intonation!), but it's a good sounding guitar that plays well. What more can you ask for? No seriously, WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR?
Anyway, it's not all peaches and pilsners. There's at least one thing I don't like with the PAC112V. But you're gonna have to watch the video to find out. ;)
