Essential in a busy home, but good on the road.
I principally use the SLG200N for practice when the kids are asleep. Simple as that. Ideas that come in the night need not wake up anybody anymore, as the actual un-amplified sound is about as quiet as an unplugged electric guitar.
It feels and behaves like a nylon-strung guitar, as it is. I play folk fingerstyle on steel and nylon electroacoustic normal guitars, so it has a place with my regular collection. The setup is classic Yamaha accurate - precise and built for discerning musicians.
Pros: it's a proper guitar for practice that sounds good through earphones or amplified.
Cons: only being slightly picky, but the limitation to just one microphone emulation narrows things, but I use my Yamaha THR5A practice amp/preamp (obviously through headphones if I want to be quiet) and then it genuinely rocks sonically.
Conclusion: this is a very good silent practice guitar, that actually plugged and loud (like through the THR5 and perhaps onwards to something louder) is right up there as a good stage instrument. I really, really like it.

Amazing guitar
This thing sounds as close to a real acoustic concert guitar as you could possibly imagine a purely electronic instrument sounding. It's truly breathtaking and has to be experienced to be believed. For the most stunning effect, use a decent pair of headphones.

close to perfect
all other people are suggesting this guitar for his main feature: silent. so can be used for practice all night long. i would suggest this guitar for the opposite reason. his sound. so dynamic, so warm it's amazing. Yamaha did a very great job with his modeling software, and the qualityof the sound is very close to other much costly brands. only problem with this, is the strap locks that are used also to keep the frame in place. unfortunately they tent to unscrew themselves.
