Caution
• When using the headphones, do not play using at high volume levels or for long periods of time.
Doing so can lead to irreparable damage to your hearing.
• Before connecting the SILENT Cello™ to any external devices, make sure that the power of all
related devices is turned OFF. Set the volume level of any external audio sources to the minimum
level before connecting anything. High volume settings could cause damage to the equipment and
your hearing.
• If a connection cord is unplugged while the power is ON, it may result in damage to the equipment.
The sudden shock to your ears may be great, so please use with care.
• Be careful not to step on the cord. The cord may break, equipment may be damaged, and this may
cause a substantial shock to your ears.
• The signal from the SILENT Cello™ output jacks must NEVER be returned to the AUX IN jack, either
directly or through external equipment. Doing so will result in feedback which may cause damage
to the internal electronics.
• When connecting the instrument to external audio equipment, check the jack size and make sure to
use a plug size that corresponds to the jack being used, and properly connect the cable to the jack.
■ AUX IN jack
• The AUX IN jack, located on the rear of the
instrument, can be used to connect an external
stereo signal source to the SILENT Cello™.
Connecting the audio output of a CD player, etc.
to the instrument allows you to play along with
the external audio source.
• The AUX IN jack’s signal level can be controlled
with the AUX. VOL control.
■ LINE OUT jack
The LINE OUT jack, located on the rear of
the instrument, delivers the stereo signal of the
SILENT Cello™ to external audio equipment.
Using an optional stereo phone plug cable (or
monaural phone plug cable) to connect the
instrument to the audio input jack of external
Powered speakers, mixing console, etc. to listen
from external audio equipment or recording.
The LINE OUT jack’s signal level can be con-
trolled with the VOLUME control.
• When a powered speaker is connect to the LINE OUT jack, speakers with inadequate power ratings may
distort due to the low frequencies produced by the instrument. For sufficient headroom, used powered
speakers with a power rating of 50 watts or more.
• If the sound is distorted, rotate the VOLUME dial to the left.
■ Basic Operation
1
Slide the POWER switch, located on the rear of
the instrument, to its ON position. The lamp will
light green.
2
Connect a pair of stereo headphones to the
PHONES jack on the rear of the instrument.
Make sure that the L&R sides of the headphones
are positioned on the correct ears.
3
Rotate the VOLUME dial to the desired playing
level.
■ Reverb Function
The SILENT Cello™ incorporates Yamaha’s
DSP reverb technology. Play while trying out
the three types of reverb.
1
Slide the POWER switch to the REV. ON posi-
tion, the lamp will light red, and reverb will be
applied to the SILENT Cello™ sound.
2
Slide the REVERB switch to select one of the
three reverb modes.
RM (ROOM): this reverb simulates the natural
reverberation found in a room.
HL1 (HALL 1): this reverb simulates the natural
reverberation found in a hall.
HL2 (HALL 2): the same reverb simulation as HL1
but with a longer decay time.

■ Tuning and Changing the Strings
The SILENT Cello™ is shipped from the factory with the
bridge unfitted. First, set up the bridge and then proceed
with tuning.
As the strings get old, sound quality will gradually decrease,
and it will become difficult to tune the instrument. Change
the strings as soon as you think they are getting old.
• The end of the strings are sharp and can cut fingers. Use caution
when changing strings.
• When changing or adjusting strings, do not put your face close
to the instrument. The string may suddenly break resulting in
eye or other unexpected injuries.
• The lower side of the bridge supports the 1st string (A), the higher
side supports the 4th string (C). Make sure the bridge is placed
properly, then set the bridge in the bridge seat. The side of the bridge
with the logo imprint should face the tailpiece.
• Ensure that the bridge stands vertically. If it leans to one side, use
both hands to adjust. Make sure that each string passes over the
corresponding slits in the bridge.
Make sure that the strings are resting in their
appropriate grooves in the bridge when playing
the instrument.
Strings may come out of their grooves when adjusting the bridge
or changing strings. Since the first (A) and fourth (C) strings tend
to come out of their grooves easily, use your fingers to hold the
strings gently in place when tuning the instrument.
Always make sure that the bridge is standing vertically,
whether the instrument is being played or stored.
Even if the bridge is standing vertically before tuning, it may tilt
during the tuning process. If so, readjust the bridge so it stands
vertically.
It is very important that the bridge stands vertically. If it leans in
either direction it will impair the sound and risk damaging the
instrument.
•
The strings are tuned to the following pitches. The 1st string is tuned
to A, the 2nd string to D, the 3rd string to G, and the 4th string to C.
Use a piano, tuning fork, tuner, etc., and adjust the pitch of each string
using the tuning pegs. When rotating the peg, apply firm pressure
towards the head stock.
• Finally, use the adjuster to fine tune the strings.

• If the adjuster is too loose,
it could produce noise
while playing.
Caution
Don’t loosen
too much.
Make sure that the Tail Nylon is correctly
positioned on top of the Saddle.

Caution
• When the instrument is not being used, loosen the strings until the pitch drops a whole tone.
• If the instrument is not going to be used for an extended period of time, loosen the strings even more.
• Before using the instrument, make sure that the bridge is positioned vertically. Damage to the bridge
and poor sound quality may result if the bridge is not properly positioned.
● Winding the Strings
(Refer to this section when changing the strings.)
1
Before you string the instrument, set all adjusters so that
they are in the middle of their adjustment ranges.
2
Place the ball (on the end of the string) in the notch on
the adjuster. Make sure the ball is properly inserted in the
adjuster’s notch.
3
Insert the other end of the string into the hole on the tuning peg. Rotate the tuning peg. As shown
in the illustration, wind the string on the side away from the peg handle once around the peg, then
return the string back overlapping that wind so that the remaining slack is wound gradually toward
the peg handle. 1st (A) and 2nd (D) strings are shown on the left, 3rd (G) and 4th (C) strings on the
right.
The adjuster should
be set to the middle of
its adjustmenLt range.
