The Yamaha SLG 200 Silent Guitar N is a nylon guitar powered by an SRT undersaddle pickup capturing and making the most of individual string vibrations.
Inspired by traditional classical guitar design, the SLG200N features a slim neck, thin body, and low action that lets players adopt a more aggressive style, allowing even those players who wouldn't normally choose to perform with a classical guitar to play it with ease.
SRT Powered is a new system designed to recreate the body resonance of an acoustic guitar in a bodiless guitar. Yamaha developed SRT Powered, collaborating with recording artists to create a system tailored to the unique properties of the new SLG body and modelled 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 endeavours.
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.
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.

I absolutely love this Guitar, I gave this 5 stars for the Playability, the design, the overall look, the feel and the overall Sound, I have several guitars to my collection and this is a gem that I have now added to my recordings, with the Cordoba Stage will make a wonderful blend in the mix. I would certainly recommend this Yamaha Silent guitar for all for the Professional and Semi.
I wanted a classical guitar that was easy to transport and could be played without disturbing others. This is perfect. It is well made, with good intonation and action. The on board fx are great. It means I can really enjoy long trips away from home and not miss out on my favourite hobby of playing the classical guitar.
