NGD - Yamaha Pacifica 612VIIFM

[T-Bone-BBQ]

Last week I bought this guitar used for less than half the cost of a new one. Got the 612 in today and it looks almost brand new. Zero fret wear and the bag with the manual, Allen wrenches and trem bar wasn't even opened. I'm thinking I'll replace the black pickguard with aged white pearl one and replace the single coil covers with either white or aged white. I think it'll look cool like that. It does need to have the nut filed properly, so I'll get my guitar tech to do that soon.

I have to say, I do like the black though...

Yeah, it's ok. I'm just not a big fan of plain black pickguards.

That's sharp. Out of all of the Pacifica models, that one is my favorite. It has everything you'd need.

I love it so far. I ordered the aged white pearl pickguard and trem cover for it today. Waiting on ordering different covers for the single coils to see if I want to stick with the SSL-1's. They sound great, but I've gone to all noiseless Duncan and DiMarzio singles on my other guitars, so I'll wait and see if I want to keep "real" single coils in this one or not.

What pick up is in the bridge position? A Duncan '59?

It's a Custom 5 in the bridge and two SSL-1's in the neck and middle.
