String instruments and accessories centered on bowed performance.

Models

  • Yamaha SILENT Series

    Yamaha's SILENT Series is a line of solid-body and skeleton-frame electric string instruments built for near-silent practice through headphones and for feedback-free amplified performance. The series spans violins, a viola, cellos, and an upright bass, each using piezo pickup electronics and a removable control box or onboard preamp so players can monitor privately or send a balanced line/XLR signal to a stage rig.
