Overview

Critic Consensus

Yamaha SLG200S Silent Guitar Features:

  • Steel Strings
  • Translucent Black Finish
  • Near-silent performance
  • SRT-Powered pickup system 
  • Studio-quality on-board effects

The Yamaha SLG200S Silent guitar is designed for the professional touring musician that want to be be able to practice on the road, in hotels, vans and pretty music anywhere without making much noise at all. For a more beginner-friendly alternative that’s cheaper too, consider giving our Yamaha F335 review a read.

The electronics on this guitar are super solid which is great for practicing with head phones and even plugging in and playing.  A feature of the electronics that come in handy is if you want to plug through and interface and record ideas to your computer program of choice and not have to make noise while doing it.

The rosewood frame is detachable which give you an impressive playable neck that has an impressive natural acoustic tone when used with headphones or line out. Speaking of acoustic, Yamaha creates some great acoustic guitars as well with warm tones like the one in our Yamaha FG800 review. Overall, the SLG200S is a cool looking guitar that has a lot of value for anyone that needs a super quiet guitar.
