High-tech Nylon-string Guitar Combines Performance and Beauty
The SLG200NW is the latest in Yamaha's groundbreaking line of "silent" guitars; this version is designed just for classical guitarists. The 2-1/16-inch nut provides that classical guitar feel, and the guitar's top section detaches and stows in the included gig bag — making it fit easily in an overhead compartment. Convenient and yet authentic, this guitar exhibits Yamaha's SRT powered system, developed to reproduce the sounds of a high-end Yamaha acoustic guitar. You also get a built-in chromatic tuner, onboard effects, aux in, and headphone output. With its mahogany body and neck, rosewood frame, and ebony fingerboard, the Yamaha SLG200NW is as beautiful as it is functional and travel-ready.

Classical style built for the road
With its 2-1/16" nut and flat fingerboard radius, the Yamaha SLG200NW was designed with the classical guitarist in mind — especially one who travels! Its detachable top section (top half of both the upper and lower bouts) stows neatly in a gig bag, making all of it fit easily in an overhead compartment or other small space. Max depth is 3-7/16 inches; its total length comes in at 38-3/16 inches, and the beautifully curved frame bouts are only 14 inches at their widest point. With no top or back to get damaged in transport, the SLG200NW is the ultimate classical travel guitar.
Authentic acoustic classical guitar sound
Yamaha developed the SRT powered system to duplicate all the traditional traits and subtleties of a high-end Yamaha acoustic guitar, from its body resonance to its natural sustain and decay. Warm, rich classical tones were reproduced through meticulous studio recording and tailored to the unique properties of the SLG's body. The SRT powered sound can even be mixed with the signal from the guitar's piezo pickup for even more artistic control.
High-tech value with beautiful presentation
This guitar is packed with tech: onboard EQ, reverb and chorus, the chromatic tuner, and SRT blend knob are right at your fingertips on the top side of the SLG's center frame member (the battery compartment and power button are there too). But form and function are equally represented here as the appealing curves of the mahogany body and maple and rosewood frame give the Yamaha SLG200NW great stage presence. Sweetwater guitarists also love the thin 3-7/16" body and frame and smooth matte-finish mahogany neck.
