    Question For BP

    Well hello BP just got a quick question for you. I have asked this before but you were away on some very important business. I don't want to seem like a pain I was just curious. I had an old catalogue which shows a Silo Special in what seem to be Honey Burst. It looks great, it is such a warm color. Unfortunatelly it seems it is no longer available as a color option for a Silo Special.

    So my question is is there a reason you don't offer that color for the Silo Special anymore and is there a chance that you might offer it in the future? Okay so that is two questions.

    Thank you for your time.

    It's because trans grade alder is too hard to come by. We wouldn't be able to fill the orders we would get.

    That's sad, but I figured it was something like that.. Oh well. I guess there's always Da Bay for all those fantastic old guitars.

    I was alos afraid it was something like that. I guess we will have to wait to see what the BFR Silo Special brings out.

    Thank you for your time Scott.
