Your SILENT Violin™ will give you years of reliable service if you follow the simple
rules given below:
Location
Do not expose it to the following conditions to avoid
deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage.
Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).
High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source,
outside, or in a car during the daytime).
Excessive humidity.
Excessive dust.
Strong vibration.
Power Supply
Turn the power switch OFF when not in use.
If you use an AC power adaptor, unplug the adap-

other devices to which it is connected (a sound
system, for example), turn the power switches
of all related devices OFF prior to connecting or
disconnecting audio cables.
Handling and Transport
Never apply excessive force to the controls, con-
nectors or other parts.

not by pulling on the cable.
Disconnect all cables before moving the unit.
Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping,
or placing heavy objects on the unit can result in
scratches and more serious damage.
Cleaning
Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth.
A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove
stubborn grime and dirt.
Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.
Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the unit (vinyl
can stick to and discolor the surface).
Electrical Interference
This unit contains electric circuitry and may
cause interference if placed too close to radio or
television receivers. If this occurs, move it further
away from the affected equipment.
YAMAHA is not responsible for damage
caused by improper handling or operation.

Do not listen for extended periods of time at loud volume levels using the inner earphones or head-
phones. Doing so can result in damage to your hearing.
If the sound is distorted, use the volume control on the instrument or on the Control Box and lower the
volume until the sound is no longer distorted.
Connect or disconnect the cable between the SILENT Violin™ and the Control Box only after the Control
Box power is switched OFF.
When connecting the SILENT Violin™'s Control Box to an external device, make sure that the power is
switched OFF on all devices, or that the volume on all devices is set to the minimum level. Loud volume
levels can damage your hearing, and damage equipment.
Disconnecting the cable while the power is ON may result in damage to the equipment. The sudden
shock to your ears may be severe, so please use caution.
When making connections to external devices, make sure that the proper plugs are used and securely
connected.
Caution
Never connect any devices (in-
cluding other SILENT Violins
with different model numbers)
other than the SV150 SILENT
Violin that is included in the
bundled set.
Doing so may result in damage to
the other device.

Caution
Set up
Tuning and Changing the Strings
The SILENT Violin™ 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 qual-
ity 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 re-
sulting in eye or other unexpected injuries.
The lower side of the bridge supports the 1st string (E), the
higher side supports the 4th string (G). 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 tail-
piece.
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 (E) and fourth (G) strings tend
to come out of their grooves easily, use your fingers to hold the
strings gently in place when tuning the instrument.
Also, the 1st (E) string is fitted with a protective tube. Make sure
that the tube rests on the bridge.
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.

Winding the Strings
(Please refer to this section when changing the strings)
1
Before you string the instrument, set the adjuster so that it is in
the middle of its adjustment range. (All adjusters)
2
Place the ball (on the end of the string) in the notch on the ad-
juster. 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 (E) and 2nd (A) strings are shown on the left, 3rd (D) and 4th (G) strings on the right.

If the adjuster is too loose, it could produce
noise while playing.
The strings are tuned to the following pitches. The 1st
string is tuned to E, the 2nd string to A, the 3rd string to
D, and the 4th string to G.
Using the Tuner function on the Control Box (
pg
11), push in on the peg while turning to tune.
Finally, use the adjuster to fine tune the strings.
Don’t loosen
too much.
When the instrument is not going to be used for an extended period of time, loosen the strings until
the pitch drops a whole tone.
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.

Bow hair
Rotate the screw
to adjust the bow
hair tension.
Shoulder rest
The Shoulder Rest
A commercially available violin shoulder rest (4/4 size) can be
attached to the instrument.
The Bow (supplied with the SV150S)
(When the winding is covered with a clear wrap)
This film pre-
vents discoloration and prevents loosening of the winding due to
shrinkage during drying (except on carbon bows).
Do not remove
the clear wrap.
Apply rosin to the bow hairs before using. Before using the bow for
the first time, apply rosin carefully and evenly to the whole bow.
From the 2nd time, apply a small amount of rosin to the bow hairs.
Before using the bow, rotate the screw shown in the illustration so that the bow hairs become taut. The bow
stick should be concave and the bow hairs should have medium tension and be evenly taut. If the bow hairs
and bow stick are parallel, the bow is too tight and this may result in damage or trouble to the bow.
After use, make sure to loosen bow tension. Also, if powdered rosin has accumulated on the bow stick,
wipe the bow stick with a soft cloth to remove the rosin.
Winding
The bow’s shape can make it a danger to persons and objects close by. When playing the instrument
make sure sufficient space is provided between you and the next person or object, etc. Never treat the
bow in a rough manner, such as swinging or throwing the bow.
About the Soft Case (SV150S Accessory)
The accessory soft case is designed for use with this particular instrument. It is designed to
hold the instrument, Control Box, and your own shoulder rest.
The bow case can also be detached and used. When the bow case is removed, pull out the belt
attached to the back of the bow case, and attach it to the soft case as shown in the diagram.
The case is designed for carrying the instrument. It is not designed to protect the instrument from impacts.
Do not expose the instrument to impact or strong pressure while carrying or storing the instrument.
Remove the shoulder rest before placing the instrument in the soft case.
