The Yamaha SVC50 4-String Silent Cello has been designed with slimmer, compact dimensions that easily break down to allow the entire instrument to fit into a compact case for easy transport. While this model utilizes the same pickup system as found in the SVC110, the SVC50's leg supports are a single unit design that is easily removed from the instrument's alder body.
Outstanding Tone Plus Spacious Reverb
The uniqueness of the SILENT Cello™ lies in its ability to place naturally full-bodied, nuanced tone in a rich, simulated concert hall acoustic environment without the need for external signal processing. An original Yamaha chip delivers eminently natural, warm reverb in three variations: Large Hall, Medium Hall, and Room.
Play Along, Connect to a Sound System
In addition to its many other features the SILENT Cello™ has an auxiliary input as well as line and headphone outputs. Connect an external source to the auxiliary input and play along, and/or connect the line output to an external sound system for live performance. The headphone jack supports private practice with lush reverb effects.
Compact Form
The SVC50 is disassemble to fit in a compact carrying case for easy transportation. The SVC50’s leg supports can be easily removed from the instrument body. It offers fast, fuss-free setup, and in its performance configuration provides the player with a natural comfort and excellent support.

Having enjoyed Yamaha's Silent instruments for 20 yrs + (Trumpet, Guitar, Violin, Viola) I decided to research their options for Cello.
As this is a secondary instrument for me I chose the lower price model.....which uses the same bridge and pickup as the top end Silent Cello.
Superb design with 'knee grips' and sternum support. Geared tuners look good and are very practical.
The sounds are excellent with dry and reverb settings.....ideal for a musician who owns an acoustic and/or electro acoustic Cello.
Highly Recommended.....!!
