Yamaha Silent Guitar Nylon

This is a fantastic guitar, especially at this price point. The guitar is solid, well built, and you don't need a lower adapter - The 2 AA batteries last a long time. It plays very well, and has room for adjustments to make it play even better. And the sound is amazing. I bought it for use in our Church Band - I've always loved the sound of a Classical in contemporary music… read more (Lee Ritenour uses one for rhythm and lead, and it's a nice fit). The problem has been that on stage a Classical just doesn't project. It gets drowned out. This one lets you crank up the sound as loud as you need to. It works. I'm still adjusting the sound, fine tuning my amp settings, but this is doing exactly what I was after. The big surprise? It actually has a very nice punch when used with Overdrive. It is a usable sound. Full. Powerful. I originally thought I'd be switching guitars a lot - And I do some. But this is a LOT more flexible than I'd expected. On top of everything else, it's just a beautiful instrument to look at. I always liked Yamaha's instruments. They did this one right. John Wilson

Makes Me a Better Player

I've had my SLG200N for awhile now and I feel like this guitar has made me a better player in ways I didn't expect. First off, it feels so natural. But it's the tone, the ability of the system to bring out the little details in each string pluck or strum that lets me hear what I'm doing right and wrong. The clarity and the detail is much deeper than any other guitar I have picked… read more up so far. The on board tuners make tuning quick and accurate. The fret board feels great and the on board effects let me tailor the tone. My husband complements me every time I play this guitar. And the guitar makes me creative with tone and genre. I'm using it with Yamaha's THR5 and the two of them work together like they were built for each other. As far as portability, you can't beat a SLG200 and a THR5. These two products make me want to play all day and all night. Love it!

Yamaha SLG200N

Thank you Josh Kattner for helping me through the whole process and making sure the whole experience was not only pleasant but fun. Thank you for following up to make sure I"m happy and I definitely am. The guitar is wonderful. It sounds great amplified or in headphones and plays like guitars three to four times more expensive. In tune all the way up or down the neck. Great action.… read more I can now play sitting right next to my wife while she"s watching tv and not drive her crazy. It also has one side that"s removable to fit very slimly in a nice soft carrying case that comes with it to make it a terrific travel guitar. Sweetwater is first class all the way. They have my business for life. They are the best!
