Yamaha Silent G200N Nylon Natural

A New Generation Yamaha Silent Guitar Designed for the Traveling Musician

With the SLG200, Yamaha evolves the "Silent Guitar" concept: a minimalist-format guitar designed to reduce natural acoustic volume while offering a true playing experience and easy use in the studio or on stage. The integration of the SRT system marks a turning point in the range by aiming for a more realistic and more "microphone-like" reproduction than classic internal preamps.

For Whom and Which Styles?

The Yamaha SLG200 is aimed at beginner to advanced guitarists looking for a discreet guitar to practice at home, in an apartment, or on the go, without sacrificing comfort. Its "nylon strings" approach suits classical and Latin repertoires as well as pop and fingerstyle styles when a soft touch and direct sound output (mixer, audio interface, amplifier) are desired.

Sound

The "Silent" principle is based on a structure without a traditional body: the guitar naturally projects much less than a standard classical guitar, allowing late-night playing without disturbance. To regain a credible acoustic signature when amplified, the SLG200 relies on SRT and the SRT Blend control that allows mixing the direct pickup sound and microphone simulation. The equalizers (bass/treble) and "smooth" control help tailor the sound for headphones, recording, or amplification, while the reverbs and chorus add immediate depth without external gear.
