The Yamaha SLG Silent Guitars


are excellent examples of Yamaha's unique capability to combine modern and traditional elements into instruments that are truly innovative and versatile. Utilising an original design in combination with quality electronics, these hybrid instruments deliver outstanding tone and playability that is just as at home on stage or in the studio, as it is in your living room.

Headphones allow for private practice, whilst the instruments can also plug into an amplifier or a sound system for powerful live performance. Built-in DSP processing adds the warmth of reverb without having to plug into any outboard processing gear or effects. For the ultimate in mobility, the composite body quickly breaks down and fits into a compact soft case for easy transport.
