This followed me home from the music store last night. It's a Yamaha SLG110N nylon "silent acoustic". It doesn't quite have the snap and response of my Cordoba FCWE Reissue flamenco, but it sounds awesome. More like a standard classical. Very impressed. Sounds great through head phones. And on-board FX are great, though I run the guitar dry and use just a hint of reverb on my Fishman Loudbox Mini.

My wife was giving me the look (of a wife who's seen 5 Les Pauls, 2 Strats, a couple of tube amps, and a bunch of FX pedals come through the door over the summer) when I walked in the door with the case. But as soon as I pulled it out, she was like "ahhhh... that's SO cool". I'm diggin it and already the wheels are turning, thinking about returning to my solo acoustic gigging schtick... though I'll probably go a little less latin-flavored and a little more smooth-jazz this time.

Piezo or mic pickup?

Photobucket was slow as shit loading that picture too.

Piezzo. Being that it's not a real acoustic, a mic probably wouldn't be of all that much use I'm thinking.

Weird on the photobucket deal. Will have to investigate that.

No place to put my sound hole plug...

That's definitely different, and I can see how it would be handy for gigs.

I wouldn't be able to pass that up just on uniqueness alone.

Still lovin' this guitar and everyone who sees it is instantly fascinated. I highly recommend it for people who want a quiet practice guitar that sounds GREAT plugged-in, as well as those who struggle with playing a deep-bodied acoustic (like I do, because of my ulnar nerve issues in my right arm).

Never saw one before.
Saw a Cello like that speaking of 'sawing.'
Cool.
