This model of high-end Yamaha electric violins was purchased by myself in 2010, and has since been discontinued. The condition of this instrument is like new, seeing light use in live performances over the years. It is extremely playable, with a very good tone when plugged into an amp and dialed in correctly using the built-in EQ and volume knobs. Playing it unplugged and "silent" also offers enough volume for practice sessions, and the headphone plug-in mode is also a very useful feature.

Body & Frame: Crafted from solid maple with a unique maple soundboard that runs from the neck to the chin rest, simulating acoustic body resonance.
Neck & Fingerboard: Maple neck with an ebony fingerboard. The neck is slightly wider (25mm–45mm) to comfortably accommodate the 5th string.
Electronics & Pickups: High-power pickup system featuring individual sensors for each string. It includes an onboard 5-channel mixer (allowing individual string level adjustments) and a master volume control.
Outputs: Features dual output modes with standard Line Out (no preamp needed to plug directly into guitar amplifiers) and a dedicated Headphones Out for silent practice.
Hardware: Lightweight gear-type tuning pegs, regular violin-type ebony tailpiece with 5 holes, and a standard ebony chin rest.
Power Supply: Runs on a single 9V battery.
Dimensions & Weight: 4/4 full size measuring 589mm (H) x 206mm (W) x 126mm (D). It weighs approximately 717g with the battery included.
