    That is a nice example of the really early models... Little pricey though, I think... The early ones are cool to look at, but when Guitarist did a comparison between a first year Silhouette and a contemporary model back in 2003 or so, they were squarely on the side of the newer version - they said it was a better guitar all around. Which is as it should be, of course, as the model has been refined and improved in many obvious and not-so-obvious ways over the years...

    way, way, way overtime that seafoam green was offered as a colour option on the current guitars IMHO.

    I bough an OLP axis simply because it was seafoam - THE colour (ask Jeff Beck)!

    I agree that the colour is not so vintage. I would say more 1980's.
    I do think an all white pickguard or white pearl would do the trick.

    I wish the seller all the luck in the world. Tried to sell mine on ebay with no luck at all. Decided to bite the bullet and trade in on an amp (which is the only reason I need to lose it) and was offered a whopping $400. Needless to say, I still own a KILLER candy apple red Silo Special

    I shave with Wilkersons. The trem is likely a Wilkinson.
