The YEV's lightweight, minimalist design is unmistakably modern, beautiful and functional. Plug it into an amplifier and/or effects device to enable infinite options for practice, recording and performing.

No matter how you look at it, the YEV delivers undeniable visual appeal. The graceful infinity-loop whether seen from the front, back or side inspires performers and audiences alike. The YEV's sleek body shape is the perfect complement to the instrument's captivating tone.

Inspired by craft and design elements of Yamaha acoustic guitars, Yamaha set out to design a new kind of electric violin made primarily from wooden materials. This instrument takes a design cue from both violin and acoustic guitar shapes, creating a beautiful yet amazingly lightweight instrument made with six different woods. These wood materials are carefully crafted with an airy infinity loop-like design, representing the dimensions of acoustic space, and is as stunning visually as it is fun to play. Using a unique Yamaha bridge pickup that carries over from professional Yamaha Silent Violins, this instrument delivers a smooth, organic and warm tone. The design incorporates a simple input to match the clean and natural aesthetic of this innovative electric violin.
