Yamaha SVC 50 Silent Cello

Ich nutze das SVC 50 seit einem halben Jahr und würde es jederzeit wieder kaufen. Unabhängig von der Tages- oder Nachtzeit kann gespielt werden, was für mich in einer Mietwohnung ein großer Zugewinn ist.
Die Anlieferung war hervorragend, da gab es gar nichts zu beanstanden; super verpackt. Die mitgelieferte Tasche ist wunderbar. Die aufgezogenen Saiten haben mir persönlich nicht so gefallen, sodass ich sie mittlerweile ersetzt habe... Das ist aber natürlich Geschmackssache. Der Sound vom Cello selbst ist aber hervorragend!
Ich habe auch schon mit einem Verstärker gespielt, was ebenfalls wunderbar klappt.

Nebenbei einen CD-Player laufen zu lassen oder dergleichen kann entfallen, weil man das Handy direkt mit dem Cello verbinden kann und darüber ein Metronom, Youtube, Übungsmusik (was auch immer) laufen lassen kann... Es macht vieles einfach und unglaublich viel Spaß.
Nebenbei gefällt auch das Design des Cellos sehr. Toll verarbeitet.
Kaufempfehlung :)

The Yamaha SVC 50 is amazing. It is the first line of Silent Cellos by Yamaha and I really enjoy learning how to play this instrument.

I am a beginner at learning how to play cello and I know there is a lot of opinions about learning how to play on a classic acoustic cello, but it's great if you haven’t got a lot of space you won’t be disturbing neighbours, because it come with headphones, it's light weight and has a beautiful sound.

There is a lot of accessories you need to get, for those new to a stringed instrument, you will need to get: a tuner, a good bow (preferably horse hair- sounds much better, I realised this later...), rosin for the bow (I like a lighter one), a fingerboard sticker for learning where the notes are and a good tutorial book or teacher. You might consider getting good spare strings. - For the silent cello you will need to get an adapter for power. (There are many other things you could get- a music stand, a cello stand, an amplifier but you'll know what more you'll need to get when you’re comfortable playing and especially if you’re already a seasoned cello player – you’ll just plug in and get practicing)

As this is the first line of Silent cellos by Yamaha unlike the newer models you will need to attach the chest rest and knee rest to make you feel like you’re in a playing position of an acoustic cello. The newer models (SVC 110, SVC210) look aesthetically like a cello whereas the SVC 50 looks like a cool cross between a futuristic silent cello/electric guitar.

I love playing this cello. It has exceeded my expectations. I feel you have to really search for information when starting to learn how to play a stringed instrument, let alone a silent stringed instrument. Advice is not so readily available as with a guitar or piano, but I'm very pleased with the advice on the Thomann website, their service and delivery. Thank you.

Bought the cello a few months ago and have been experimenting with it non stop. It is a perfect companion for a cellist who wants to play something a bit more modern. The sound is very high quality yet has a unique tone and an elegant look to it.
Pros: The sound of a typical piezo cello pickup comes nowhere near the quality of this electric cello. Currently I am doing non-classical music concerts with it and it solves a lot of problems that I had with an acoustic cello. It is easier to set up, doesn't get feedback in the monitors and works better with pedalboards. It is also easier to transport as it's parts are detachable and fit into a small gig bag.
Cons: At first it is a bit weird to play in loud environments because you don't feel the resonance of the body and you have to have a monitor or in-ear monitor to actually hear yourself in concerts, even in quiet pieces. But you get used to it. Also the strings that come with it are not the best ones, I would recommend replacing them.

But still, so far this has been one of the best purchases I've made!
