Yamaha SLG200NW Silent Nylon String Electric Guitar

The Yamaha SLG200NW Silent Acoustic-Electric Guitar is the perfect choice for quiet practice. With the guitar's sound running through headphones, you can play and experience the realistic sounds of an acoustic nylon-stringed instrument. The Yamaha silent guitar features a lightweight mahogany body, with a detachable upper frame for portability. The neck is constructed from mahogany, and features a rosewood fingerboard. The SLG200NW offers real classical guitar experience with conventional classical guitar wide neck construction. The Silent Guitar "acoustically" produces only 1 1/10th the amount of sound volume; which makes the SLG200NW great for playing anytime or anywhere. Electronics include Yamaha's SRT Powered system modeled after the tones of a high-end Yamaha acoustic guitar captured using a carefully selected 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. 4 effects are avavailable; Reverb1, Reverb2, Chorus and Echo. AUX IN lets you play along with your favorite recordings. The Yamaha SLG200NW is designed for easy transport. The silent acoustic-electric guitar has mini-stereo inputs for plugging in a MP3 or CD player for play-along. The Yamaha acoustic-electric guitar interfaces well with acoustic-effects processors, PA.s and amps. Silent design makes it perfect for home use or practice. Also includes a durable gig bag.
