Yamaha actively approached him, when he was using a telecaster model. He made several such requests as "no need for a long sustain" and "a beautiful sound that reverberates in a musical way." The Yamaha PACIFICA1611MS was created to answer all of his needs. Since then, Mike Stern takes his Yamaha PACIFICA1611MS wherever and whenever he plays live.

PAC1611MS

Mike Stern's signaturmodell har fräschats upp med Yamahas exklusiva träbehandling och finish. IRA (Initial Response Acceleration)-teknologi "skakar bort" stressen som oftast finns i nya träslag på många gitarrer, vilket gör Yamahas gitarrer mer vibranta och responsiva. Oljad lönnhals i ett stycke för bättre komfort. PAC1611MS comes with a certificate personally signed by Mike to prove this guitar is perfectly crafted in his specification.

SLG200N

SLG200N är inspirerad av klassiska gitarrer och har smal hals, tunn kropp, och låg aktion vilket medger en mer aggressiv spelstil. Det gör att gitarrister som normalt inte spelar på klassisk gitarr kan hantera den med lätthet.
