Description
Its accurate to say that the Yamaha SLG200 Series is truly unique. Versatile enough for travel, practice and live use, its built for those scenarios where you need something that strikes the perfect middle ground between electric and acoustic guitars. They look like nothing else on the market too; you’re guaranteed to stand out from the crowd!
SRT-Powered Pickup
This innovative tech aims to recreate the body resonance you’d usually find on a traditional acoustic, translating that into the bodiless format found here. Its modelled on a premium Yamaha model that’s been recorded in a professional studio using a top of the line microphone. The result is the same natural decay and sustain, offering you the same realistic characteristics and tone of an acoustic guitar.
Travel Friendly
Engineering eggheads over at Yamaha have developed an incredibly smart construction for the SLG200. The ability to detach the upper part of its frame ensures you can easily take it with you on your travels; its a far more practical option if you’re going away. This design doesn’t compromise on durability either. The solid body structure is surprisingly strong, and won’t be easily damaged during transit. When compared with its acoustic/electric counterparts in this area, there’s really no competition when it comes to ease of transport. The slim body is still highly playable too – swapping between this and an electric guitar without any discomfort is absolutely seamless.
Practice Potential
A benefit of the bodiless build is that it projects a naturally quiet sound. If you live in a flat, or like to practice late at night, it’s the ideal choice if you don’t want to disturb anybody. Tests even show that the SLG200S is 80% quieter than your standard acoustic! Additional functions like the onboard effects, in-built chromatic tuner and headphones connectivity only enhance the playing experience further.
