Mike Stern’s signature model has been refreshed with Initial Response Acceleration (I.R.A.), a wood treatment and finish exclusively by Yamaha. This technology shakes off the stress often found in new guitars and makes them extremely vibrant and responsive. The PAC1611MS comes with a certificate personally signed by Mike to prove this guitar was perfectly crafted to his specifications.

Features
• Vintage 7-1/4″ radius maple neck for outstanding comfort and playability
• Seymour Duncan ’59 in the neck position offers a smooth, defined tone for chords, while the Hot Rails in the bridge delivers fat sustain
• Initial Response Acceleration (I.R.A.) shortens the time needed for the guitar to adapt to your playing style and delivers excellent sustain
