Yamaha SVB200SK Silent Electric String Bass
The SVB-200 incorporates a semi-hollow body design and new pickup system that combine to deliver a serious sound that demands to be heard. Played pizzicato or with a bow it feels and sounds good, very close to the real thing.
Increased Portability
A performance-oriented bass, the SVB-200 is designed with a compact body and detachable frame that makes transport to and from the gig a breeze.
Improved Tone Quality
Built-in electronics offer plug-and-play simplicity while its full-bodied tone lets it fit naturally into any jazz setting or add a unique texture to a pop gig. Volume, Treble, and Bass controls on the SVB-200 provide straightforward control over the instrument’s tone while the instrument’s active electronics offer plug-and-play operation without the need of external pre-amplification.
Unique Pickup and Bridge Positioning
The SVB-200 utilizes a sophisticated Piezo pickup system positioned directly underneath the bridge to deliver optimum tone quality. A height adjustable bridge found on both the SVB-200 and SVB-100 lets you adjust the height to meet personal playing preferences.
Optional Features
A knee support and extension frame is optionally available for the SVB-200 to provide greater comfort and support while playing the instrument.
