    Talking Damn that Pete character!!!

    I'm a professional bass-addict, i know this. So do my dealers (you know who you are).

    However, with all this talk about the 20th Silo, all these pretty little prictures, then Dargin and BP both saying they love the damn thing and NorM counting the seconds till he gets his I decided that, yup, I had to get a 20th anniv Silo.

    So I was online at work "working" and checked some prices and decided "eh, i don't need another guitar" - then Pete returns my IM from an hour ago ... you all know how the rest of the story goes

    Yup, I'm on the waiting list for the 20th Silo. Honestly, I wanted one since I first saw the pics and heard all the great things the folks who've had their hands on em have said but I thought i was gonna hold out for an AL. Guess I was wrong

    Let the waiting game begin

    PS: I like the fact that the EB's have a few month waiting period. It really helps make gear whore-ism easier to justify. "well, its only a deposit ... ill pay some more in a few weeks, then pay it off when its done". LoL

    I'll probably go for this one too.

    Bare bone, hehehehhe.

    Doesn't like matching too.

    Looks less classier to me. <- This is correct.

    Nice Arin! That thing's gonna be a beaut.

    As for the AL, you know your gear-whore-ism will kick in and you'll end up with one anyway ...

    I really should stop reading this forum...

    I thought the 20th was awesome when I first saw the pics but these last few days there's been so much hype over it I'm starting to consider ordering one...

    What I'd really like though is that special 20th'esque JP... *Drools*
