    Ordering replacement pick guards

    Hey,

    One question. Is it possible to order a new pickguard for a Silo Spec? I have found a used Silo Spec. that I'm interested in, but I'm not 100% sure about the pick guard.

    Is it also possible to replace the pickup covers? I know this is usually possible for the single coils, but what about the humbucker?

    Thanks,
    Sebastian

    Hey Sebastian,

    Get in touch with customer service. Yes, you can get replacement pickguards and covers for single coils. But your out of luck for the humbuckers. You can also go through your local ebmm dealer and order through them.

    What Scott said. I've ordered two directly from MM, one fully loaded SSS and one bare pg to load an HSS assembly into. The HB's don't use covers so you're stuck with whatever color it is. I've got a spare stock Silo Sp HB in white, so IM me if you're interested in it.

    I've been told that we can order pickguard replacements, but we cannot order whole pickguard assemblies. Is this true? What if I wanted to convert my SSS to an SSH? I also want that silent circuit thing. Can I order that?

    The SSS I ordered was to replace an HSS, and it included the Silent Circuit (see avatar). Price was very reasonable and the turn around on it was fast.

    If I understand correctly, the Silo Special was intended to be modular, with more than one pickguard assembly being easily attainable.
