Excellent comments. Clear, synthetic and useful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I really enjoyed that. Very interesting guitar, to say the least. You're a really wonderful player, too, and I look forward to seeing additional videos from you. Congrats on your guitar and abilities.
Excellent review, thank you. Very expressive playing too.
Great review. Gives me the knowledge I need to decide to get one despite the problems for flamenco.
Thanks Carlo for your review. I am really considering buying this guitar as I travel extensively and this would help me to have practice time while sitting in my hotel rooms without annoying other hotel guests
I come back every day to play the video between 1:00 and 1:31. Gives me a real boost. 😊
I also love my Yamaha SLG's. I solved the golpe problem with a 1/8 " piece of scrap wood. I cut the piece to fit over the area of the pick guard and glued it with couple of dabs of hot melt glue. It looks like hell but it works for me!!
I have one of these guitars and just ordered some hard tension strings so I can get that flamenco sound. Love this guitar.
La chitarra è stupenda e tu suoni magnificamente! Sinceri complimenti!
Great review. I play some flamenco but mostly Spanish and classical. The quiet is very important to me. Plus it’s looks cool! Another great guitar to play and hang on the wall.
I put a red dot stick on pickup under plate guard for Flamenco . I also deadened the strings with Velcro on the bridge for les sustain and seemingly better attack .
Thanks for the nice review. You are playing very good. Really fun. I also so have this guitar since a few years. I made some electrical modifications (equalizer and remote control) and mechanical modifications like better arm support, so I can also play flamenco, Jimi Hendrix or classical music. Further a non silent approach, with special mounted MEMS loudspeaker, in case my friends also want to hear what I play. In this way, I do not have to carry and amp with me all the time and the total weight of my guitar is not more than 4 kg. So I have only one guitar to play silent and not silent.
Why in the world are you so underrated????? You are such a Talent and professional at the same time. Anyway keep Up the good work. Thank you
Awesome guitar. Thanks for your review
Each guitar in your hands will be amazing
woooooaaaahh that flamenco strumming in the beginning was so gooooooooddd
Beautiful playing and guitar! I want one.
Seriously the best review of this guitar by far. Yamaha should pay you or at least endorse you.
Excellent video! :)
Great Video thank you very much sir!!! GOing to buy one for sure
Really enjoyed your review, your playing, and your friendly approach. I am an absolute beginner with a good standard classical guitar. I bought this guitar really so I can practice at any hour of the day and not disturb my neighbours (condo life). I need to get those 10,000 hours behind me. So far my issue is the guitar slipping (I play more standard classical positioning with the guitar head opposite my face -- more or less). I want to explore the possibility of those supports one can use when not wanting to have a footrest. Hoping that helps. Also getting a strap as well.
Wow my dream guitar
Music touches the soul
Sounds amazing really nice
Brilliant demo!
Thank you!
Very well done review....Thank You!
You're welcome! And thanks for watching!
Great review. Thanks!
Hi Carlo, thanks for the great review and this has helped me move towards buying one.
Glad it helped 🙂
Excelente! Parabéns!!!! Além de tocar muito bem!!! Show!!!
Olá Jefferson! Muito obrigado por assistir meu vídeo e pelo seu comentário! 👍
Good review, thank you very much
You're a great player !! Thanks for your art. Nice review !
Thanks! I appreciate that
Great sounding guitar, and enjoy your playing, very nice technique
love your finger technique
Belle présentation, bien fait, complet. Merci!
I received the 200-NW and when compared to an hollow body guitar, it lacks the dynamics and the tonal quality of a real hollow body. Well crafted and the action is incredible.
Blown away!
😃
Thanks for the review bro.
Thank you Carlos. Very good review. I prefer classic guitars, but I am leaving in the middle of nowhere, so do not really need a silent guitar. Anyway it looks a good product when traveling or in case you do not want to disturb others.
Yamaha always ships with that super high action.
I totally agree with your review... I have one as well. It provides a sustain that is unlike a pure acoustic Spanish or classical guitar.
Nothing can compete with the sound of a real acoustic guitar, agreed. But the SLG200n is great a what it does.
May construction look a like neck through to the body?
Thx Carlo! Very usefull video!
You're welcome!
I would like yamaha to put a soundhole in there to amplify the sound naturaly somewhat, and a small dual speaker setup in that hole so one can play out with these without an amp or headphones.
You can tape an mp3 player to it for background music, and have the guitar sound amplified through the speaker.
Awesome!
tem um som ótimo , voce toca muito bem parabens.
Wonderful playing!
Thank you!
Hi Carlo, thank you for your perfect, realistic presentation of the Silent guitar. Of course you will never get the sound of a Hermanos Conde Flamenco guitar even if we would like to have it. Probable in another price category. Anyway I got the best information in order to buy or let the guitar rest in the Music store. You are a good guitar player, congratulation!! Keep on posting.
Thank you for your comment Osci!
Thanks!
Nice review, thanks. Classical, Jazz, and the missing bit - Rock Fusion ... Or Country Fusion ... the full and mellow bass of the nylon stringed instruments leads to things the in intro to "Ice Cream Man" and other uses in rock. Yes, they may be limited (for now) because rock players are not thinking widely enough. But, as Willie Nelson shows in his playing, there is a place for nylon in a band setting. It can cut through the mix :-)
I just love this video..
I just love this comment 👍
I have one and it’s true everything he said.
the sound is great. you can do it.
Hola Carlo! Felicidades por el review me sirvió bastante. Al final decidí comprar la guitarra y me di cuenta que la ganancia que tiene es muy alta, conectado a un amplificador directamente tiene mucho HUM. En tu vídeo tienes la guitarra conectada a una caja directa o una tarjeta de audio con preamp?
I love this review! Carlo, is there any other "silent" option for flamenco players? Would this guitar be ok practice any flamenco technique that doesn't involve "golpe" ? I am interested in this one only for playing flamenco at night assuming in advanced that I can't practice golpes with it as the only downside.
Great review.
Thanks!
You're playing is music for my soul ! I wonder if flamingo players could attach a thin piece of wood to the top somehow, so that you could use that technique to play the flamingo music. Maybe replace the pick quard with a larger extension ?
Thx.
Comprei um violão Silente 130, muito bom, já tem uns 3 anos, agora deu pane na parte elétrica e não consigo representante da Yamaha para consertar!
The song you played is truly beautiful
Thank you so much! I'm planning to write a song on this theme. I'll keep you updated ;)
@@CarloEspresso yes please... Do a tutorial please sir... In desperate..😍😍😍😍
For the Rumba, I saw a modification where the silent guitar has body (not empty) with added wood board to fill the empty body.
Good review.
Great review 👍👏
Thank you!
Bravo bravissimo
Excelente 👌
Excellent review and bossa sounded authentic. Best review of this guitar. I wonder if the action can be adjusted?
Vc é fera toca muito
Very good objective review on an interesting instrument.
Thanks!
I got one of these ...Amazing Guitar ....☆Merry Christmas
Thank you Caen, Merry Christmas to you too!
P.s. It's a beautiful guitar and you have to pre-order and it doesn't have a full body acoustic sound. All the reviews show versatility for playing classical music genres.Phillip Austin
Nice guitar, i really like it ✌️
Very good
Nice review. Thanks! where do you suggest I learn flamenco guitar online?
Wouldnt it be cool if there was a switch to toggle between cedar and spruce top?
Had one, lost it - well gave it away actually - now i ordered another.
Love the sound of it.
But please show us some more flamenco.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for a great review :) It is a killer guitar! I have the first model of this silent Yamaha (Slg100). 'The action could be lower' - yes, sir I agree A LOT. I had to help my friend with his new Slg 200N, I have some files an skills how to lower the action - important! After sanding and filing off ca 3mm at the bridge bone, and ca 1,5mm at the nut, the guitar became playable for the first time. Also much more correct intonation.
It is a shame that Yamaha do not set up their guitar properly. My Ibanez nut file set is probably the most important investment I have made. A guitar with too high action (string height) is not any fun at all, you have to use double as much power to press down the strings, and the guitar sounds always out of tune.
Other than that, the Silent Guitars are just wonderful instruments!
I completely agree with you.
Unfortunately, that is the case with pretty much all guitars on the market.
I guess you did a good thing in investing in a file set
I agree. I took this guitar to my (great) luthier and set a lower action. Plays like a dream now.
Nice review! I wonder how solid that upper wing connection to the body is?
Nice review Carlo. I would like you to do a review on Godin guitar (made in Canada) and your recommendation of it for playing Rumba music. You are a very inspiring person Carlo. I really enjoy your music and lessons (which I plan to use to learn Rumba soon).
Hi Roy, thanks for the kind comment.
Well, If I can get my hands on the godin multiac, why not. 🤞
Great video. Which strings would you recommend using on this guitar? Thank you
If it was half that price, I would buy it straight away! But damn.
Sick playing !
Thanks!
Carlo Espresso onde comprou o seu Silent? Aqui no Brasil é muito difícil achar, só achei usado e nas duas lojas que encontrei, o preço Nylon estava acima de 5 mil (na versão igual o seu) e um de Aço à 3.800 (modelo de pintura sem brilho) e era última peça (mostruário exposto a um bom tempo)
Ola Leonnardo Oliveira, obrigado por assistir !
Eu comprei minha guitarra na Europa. Infelizmente, eu sei que no Brasil é muito caro. Tomara que voce consigar encontrar uma usada por um bom preço ! Boa sorte
Hey I just bought a silent guitar and I played some flamenco on it. It sounds like Ben Woods playing a guitar. He is flamenco guitar extraordinaire with a silent guitar.
Bradley Monroe can you record this directly to a laptop?
It could work.
Nice review. I've ordered one.
Cool, I’m sure you’ll love it!
What strings are you using in the demo?
Hannabach 900 Silver
Hi, thanks for the review of the slg200n. Which amp do you use? I ask because i baught the same guitar and for the same reason as you. I would like to try it plugged in though as I am able to play without disturbing anyone now.
You can lower the action by decreasing the saddle height.
Meu sonho, pena não ter condições rsr
Carlo: ¿Que cuerdas recomiendas para esta guitarra? Las cuerdas que trajo son terribles y quiero cambiarlas. ¿Alta tension o baja tension? ¿Cuales son tus marcas preferidas_
How well do natural harmonics ring? And would you recommend this guitar as a great beginner guitar for a classical guitar student?
Hi Carlso, I just bought SLG200S, it Buzzes when I release the string or note. Did you make any adjustments to your
SLG200N? BTW, great finger style playing, you are very talendet to play this in two years. great job.
Like .thanks for your talent🌹🌹
Ok legal!
Hi.Carlo ,very nice comments, thanks,would you recommend me to buy it,as I play solos. Can I attach further gadgets like pedals n syntheizr.?
Good wishes 💐
Grazie per l' ottima recensione. La mia domanda si riferisce alla bella chitarra flamenco blanca che suoni nel video. Di che modello si tratta? Grazie
😍😍😍😍
I think you can change the action vis the truss rod adjustment.
Where does the sound of the guitar come from in this video? you have it amped and recording the room sound or is it directly plugged into a audio interface to your computer?
hi i from Brasil. excellent 👏👏👏
Obrigado!
bien ahi campeón !! buen review, me sirvió una banda. ¿Recomendaría esta guitarra a un principiante nivel 0 ?... gracias capo.
Hola David, y gracias por tu comentario!
Sí, la guitarra sería genial para principiantes. Pero es más adecuado si quieres tocar en vivo.
Perdón por mi Español ;)
Why did you choose the SLG200N instead the SLG200NW? is the action lower on this one? Sounds great! Cheers
Hello Carlo! Could you please tell, which amplifier do you usually use to play flamenco on Yamaha slg200n?
Thank you for your review! I’ve been thinking about this guitar for quite a while, never had a chance to check it myself. What I want to find out is whether there’s a noticeable and unpleasant feedback noice in headphones/speakers if you try to play some quite music at high volume. Thought I’d ask here, although I can see how this type of questions can be annoying, after all you are not a shop assistant. Best regards to you anyway!
Hi Sergey,
No problem at all.
It’s hard to give you an answer, maybe try to switch cables/speakers and see if the noise is still there.
If you’re still having an issue, if may come from the guitar. But I can’t say for sure.
Hope that helps.
Carlo Espresso Thank you! I guess, I hoped that you would say something like “oh, this guitar has a terrible background noise” and I would stop thinking about it :-) Well, hope one day to check it myself; purchasing such things without trying them first is not a good idea anyway.
Ciao! Recensione che mi ha spinto ad acquistarla il giorno stesso 😅 grazie mille! Una domanda: vorrei acquistare adesso un amplificatore portatile da collegarci (piccolo e non troppo potente per uso domestico!) che riproduca il suono più fedelmente possibile. Eventualmente una cassa attiva, ma le vedo tutte enormi su Internet. Suggerimenti? Grazie mille
