Yamaha SH-30NW Violyre Taishogoto - SN 500637
Yamaha SH-30NW Violyre - Taishogoto-Style Electroacoustic Japanese Stringed Instrument - For Sale
This is a fabulous Yamaha SH-30NW Violyre - based on the Japanese taishogoto (also known as a Nagoya harp) is a unique and inspiring keyboard style electric violin/cello played with the included bow and which can also be strummed with a plectrum. These are great for use with effects or electric guitar amps - it's the electric 'guitar' anyone can play! Solidly constructed – beautiful build quality - sounds immense when amplified and put through a 636!
Designed by Yamaha as a modern reinterpretation of these traditional instruments, the Violyre blends familiar acoustic string tones with a built-in pickup system for amplification and effects processing and features a simple onboard digital reverb.
The SH-30NW features a zither-like string layout with piano-style keys that press frets to change pitch, allowing for melodic play without traditional fingering techniques. This makes it especially accessible for beginners, educators, and experimental musicians, while still offering expressive control for seasoned players.
Constructed with a natural wood finish and compact body, the Violyre produces a sweet, harp-like tone that can be amplified for performance or processed through effects pedals and delays for more experimental textures. It’s ideal for ambient, folk, experimental, or soundtrack work - and is popular with artists looking to expand their sonic palette with tactile, acoustic-electronic hybrids.
This unit is in very good condition and fully functional, tested with an amp. A unique addition to any studio, collection, or live setup.
