Travel Companion for the Classical Guitarist

The Yamaha SLG200N Silent Nylon-string Guitar solves so many problems for guitarists that it is a must-have in your collection. It's easy to throw over your shoulder when you're traveling, and its minimalist body virtually eliminates the feedback problems that often plague acoustic guitars when you're performing live. Whether practicing at home, on a fly-gig, or recording, you owe it to yourself to find out what the Yamaha SLG200N Silent Guitar can do for you.

Travel with ease

With the SLG200N, Yamaha has solved a headache traveling guitarists have always had to deal with: finding space for your instrument. Acoustic guitars, because of their bulk, are especially problematic. The SLG200N's slim body breaks down to fit in its included compact gig bag. It will easily fit in the overhead compartment on your flight, under the seat in the band van, or anywhere else it needs to.

Play silently with big-guitar tone

Guitarists at Sweetwater have been in situations where we struggle to get a good sound from our instruments because of having to practice quietly, or even silently. We imagine you have, too. But with the SLG200N, just plug in your headphones and you'll hear studio-quality, miked acoustic-guitar tone, courtesy of Yamaha's SRT Powered pickup and preamp system. You can blend that signal with the included under-saddle pickup. You also get great reverbs and chorus to further tailor your tone.

Great live acoustic sound with none of the feedback

Another benefit of the powerful SRT Powered pickup system in the SLG200N is what it brings to your live performances. By using the onboard effects and SRT Powered system, you'll send the same miked-up guitar sound to your audience that you hear when practicing. Without a large acoustic body resonating from loud stage volume, feedback is a nonissue. You can move freely around the stage with full confidence that your audience is hearing exactly what you hear.

  • Hybrid nylon-string guitar with Yamaha pickup and preamp system

  • Headphone output for silent playing and listening

Silent Classical

I am enjoying my purchase . Not only is it a except crafted guitar but it has a great sound. I have it's brother electric steel guitar as well. People are always tell me this it sounds great. This is defiantly very good guitar . The people are very friendly and have a excellent customer service . I get texts from them to make sure that my orders are satisfactory.
Music background: Self taught. Play classical rock, contemporary Christian music.

Strap solutions

For those who have noted that using a strap loosens the screws which attach the top piece to the body, attached are some pictures detailing some solutions. The lower screw needs to pull downward to remain tight. Lacing the strap through the body is necessary because it uses gravity to pull the screw in the right direction. As for the top screw, there is no way to prevent it from loosening when a strap is attached. Adding a strap button on the heel is a quick fix.

Majestic Guitar

This guitar is work of art. Not only is it aesthetically pleasing and very comfortable to play, but the combination of pickups makes this instrument's presence immediately known. The electronics produce deep, rich, beautiful tone that is perfect for any venue. I absolutely love this guitar and would recommend it to classical players, singer-songwriters, and those who play small gigs.
Rated 5/5

Beautiful purchase

I have a copy of a Garcia worth roughly 6k. My Yamaha feels better, plays easier and is a pleasure to have for only 600 bucks. Fits perfectly in small airplanes where no overhead cargo typically fits (3 seaters)

Yamaha SLG200N

Perfect for travel and practicing in close settings with earplugs or earphones. Also sounds great when amplified. Action out of the box is good, but you might prefer to have your local luthier adjust it to the way you like it. Coolest looking guitar. All my friends want to hear it and give it a try.
Music background: Ukulele, flute and classical guitar
