Yamaha Silent G200Ntbs Nylon Tobacco Brown Sunburst

Description

ted microphone in a professional recording studio environment. By actually reproducing the sound of an acoustic guitar?right down to its natural sustain and decay?Yamaha lets guitarists experience the genuine body resonance, body tone and ambience of an acoustic guitar.

SRT Powered sound can even be mixed with the sound from the instrument's piezo pickups, allowing guitarists to be even more flexible in their creative endeavors.

Because the SLG can virtually reproduce the sound of a guitar recorded with a microphone, players are free from complicated procedures involved in mic-ing up a guitar when recording at home or in other settings.

Portability
The detachable top section of SLG's frame means that practicality and portability are way beyond that of a conventional guitar.
The luxury gigbag provided can be carried with ease and fits into an aircraft overhead compartment with room to spare.

Playability
The slim body of the SLG gives these instruments superb playability, and allows players to switch to playing an electric guitar without any discomfort should the need arise.

Design
With the SLG, Yamaha set out to bring a modern feel to the classic contours of a conventional guitar. The distinctive design that emerged is the result of a collaborative effort between the project team and the Yamaha Design Laboratory, and combines traditional guitar lines with an innovative new form unlike that of any guitar before it.

Quietness
The bodiless design of the SLG offers a natural, quiet sound that allows guitarists to play without disturbing others, whether practicing late at night or playing in the living room when the family is home. The SLG200N is nighty percent quieter than a conventional classical guitar.

Durability, Stability
Yamaha's SLG features excellent durability owing to its solid body structure, so users do not have to worry about damaging the instrument when playing live or traveling.
Both the steel string and nylon string models are fitted with a duel action truss rod, allowing both convex and concave bow to be adjusted.

Functionality
Connect to an external music player to enjoy music playback, enhance your playing with a range of authentic effects, or plug in headphones to enjoy playing in privacy?the SLG offers a variety of functions that make playing even more enjoyable. What's more, SLG come with a built-in precision chromatic tuner, compatibility with both battery- and AC power, and a range of other user-friendly features.

Having neither the means nor the real need to have an electro-acoustic guitar from a renowned luthier, I wanted to turn to this little gem. I first tried the Yam Silent Guitar a while ago. At the time, it was my teacher who had an SLG110N, and I was frankly blown away by both the physical quality of the instrument and its sound output. Sure, the sound was a bit piezo, nothing like the "real" sound spectrum of an acoustic guitar. Then came this V2, with its SRT system. And honestly, whether on headphones, amp, or recording, you have to really pay attention to tell if the guitar you hear is a silent guitar or a real electro-acoustic. The only aspect that lets the silent guitar down is the warmth of the sound usually offered by the resonance body of an acoustic guitar. But well, by playing with the equalizer knobs, reverb, etc., you can quite easily mask (never completely) this flaw. Finally, in terms of quality, it's a beautiful object, truly light as a feather. We actually enjoy looking at it as much as playing it. Another point I appreciated is the thin, matte varnished neck: the thumb slides on it effortlessly, pure joy. In short, for practicing, traveling, having quality sound at home as well as in concert or studio, given the price, it's worth it. Thank you Yamaha.... (Show more)

Finally here! After 3 weeks of waiting! ...let's move on... I just played it for over 2 hours and was literally blown away by the sounds you can get from this guitar. As a jazz musician, I was looking for an instrument that would allow me to approach Bossa without fearing the feedback problems I encountered with my classical guitar equipped with a Prodipe pickup. The playability is excellent and the string action is quite correct for a classical. I tried several amps and, strangely, the one that convinced me the most (for now) is my AMPEG BA108 bass amp. It is very neutral and lets the guitar's preamp express itself freely. Other tests will certainly come, probably with an AER. I plan to replace the original set of strings, which is not so bad after all, with an Augustine set that I ordered at the same time and which took a little longer to arrive than the rest. You have to make sure to tighten the screws fixing the removable side panel well because they tend to loosen easily under the action of the strap. The finishes are overall of good quality. This guitar is quite recommendable to anyone looking for a sound close to that of a classical with the added possibility to isolate oneself for practice.... (Show more)

Not to be compared with a "real" guitar with a wooden body but certainly the best travel guitar! Compact, almost the same position as a classical guitar and plugged into a good amp, the sound is good even if it is somewhat different from a classical guitar. The only downside is the strings, which pull too hard for my taste.

Acoustic guitar with beautiful sounds, I was afraid to be disappointed but it's quite the opposite, I'm enjoying it. Easy to play, it takes you into enchanting sounds and it's pure pleasure. I really don't regret my purchase, only +++++

It's fantastic but attention, it doesn't come with the power cable. You have to order it separately.

Overall satisfied. Some minor cosmetic defects. The original strings are rotten, but that's not a big deal. However, the tuners are very loose, and that's much more annoying...
