PAC611
- Bridges
- PAC611 offers 2 types of bridges to choose from based on your preference and play style.
- Wilkinson VS50 Tremolo Bridge (PAC611VFM)
- Precision machined zinc saddles are matched with a hardened steel and knife-edge baseplate for outstanding feel, stability and tone.
- Yamaha Original Bridge Plate with Graphtech String-Saver Saddles (PAC611HFM, PAC611H)
- Teflon-impregnated saddles dramatically reduce string breakage while minimizing the dominant 2KHz tonal spike of metal saddles.
Combining these saddles with Yamaha's original steel bridgeplate gives the perfect combination of quick response and strong sustain.
- Flamed Maple Top
- Stunning high-grade flamed maple is matched with exclusive see-thru colours for an unmistakable boutique look
- Neck Finish
- The tinted, gloss-finished neck gives a unique and irresistibly vintage look and feel
- Matching Headstock
- Colour-matched to the body, the flamed maple headstock is inspired by the legendary Pacifica USA models
- Locking Tuners
- Precision, pro-spec Grover locking tuners lock strings automatically for stable tuning and ultra-fast string changes
- Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and string tree
- TUSQ XL is precision engineered to couple the strings vibrations to the neck and bring out hidden harmonics and richness in every note. 500 times more slippery than graphite, the Teflon-impregnated material eliminates string-binging and ensures tuning stability, even with massive string bends.
- Coil Tap
- The standard-equipment coil tap function allows simple switching from humbucker to single-coil tones from the Seymour Duncan Custom 5 bridge pickup
- Seymour Duncan Custom 5
- Like a higher-output version of the classic '59 humbucker, the Custom 5 was developed in response to players customizing their SH-5 Custom or SH-11 Custom pickups with Alnico 5 magnets for a more vintage, less distorted tone but retaining a deeper bottom end than the stock '59.
- Seymour Duncan SP90-1
- Wound with plain enamel wire on a 1950's Leesona winding machine, the SP90-1's tone is a faithful reproduction of the original soapbar pickups. Short, wide bobbins give a higher output and more powerful midrange than conventional single-coils for a fat neck pickup tone with clarity impossible to achieve with humbucking pickups.
