Well it was Charlie Chandler that did it for me. He plugged the hole with a dowel, and then scraped some overspray from one of the pickup cavities onto the dowel plug. He did this whilst adding a few layers of laquer in and around the area, and its really barely noticable! It really does show what a genius he is!

If you catch it in the right light, or take a picture with a flash you can just see how its done.

Charlie shure is good at what he does. Very nice work. Thanks for spillin the beans :-)

I wish BP would make me a BFR green Axis SS without this 2nd tone pot hole drilled!

Have you asked EBMM if they could do it?

Have you asked EBMM if they could do it?

No, because I know custom orders are a no-no....

I picked up some Russian Paper in Oil capacitors. From Lithuania. All of them are good and within +/- 5% of .047uf. Great for guitars. So I installed one in my Silo, and here it is.



I think my Silo now has a little more detail and clarity. But I'm going to take more time to evaluate. Sounds pretty good though. ....

These are K40Y-9 and .047 200V PIO's. Plenty of room to mount them in the body of most EBMM guitars. Anyone interested in trying one out? PM me.

Those are great ..the Hovland ones look alot bigger in the pics ...there is no problem fitting them in the cavity ....and as you use them more you will notice more of an increase in the detail and clarity of your notes ...they need a breakin period...also i find that i hear more when using a tube amp rather than solid state ...more as it happens!
