A '''silent guitar''' is a type of [[guitar]] with a [[solid body guitar|solid]] or [[chambered body]] that converts the vibration of the strings into [[electric current]] using a [[piezoelectric pickup]]. The body of the guitar does not amplify the vibration of the strings into audible sound. Thanks to this, musicians can practice with headphones without disturbing people around them,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Little |first1=Guy |title=Yamaha
