Yamaha Pacifica Standard Plus SHW RF

It came almost in tune, in a very nice gigbag indeed. Good weight, very comfy, fantastic hardware. I could probably have done a concert with it the same day. The neck had some hints of roughness that started to fade after a short period of time.

The microphones will take some getting used to, but they're certainly interesting! I'm getting more and more fond of them. They're very dynamic. Can be a bit too snappy, but that snappiness is great when you need it. Very rich and full sounding, but you just need to spend some time with them (and your gear, the eq...). They're much more responsive than I'm used to, but there are some wonderful clean and breakup sounds there, and the treble bleed is fantastic. The humbucker works well with gain.

Edit: The roughness on the neck and some of the frets is not a problem at all, but this guitar was only minutes away in the final QC from being totally perfect. That’s why I’m not giving it a 5 in that department. But I’ve had it for 3 months now, and all I can say is that it’s a very solid guitar that’s a joy to play - definitely one of the best ones that I’ve had!
