    My first ebmm

    I am preparing to send money off for my first Ernie Ball Music Man... i'm finally getting a 20th Anniversary Silhouette. The craziness started a few years ago when i purchased an OLP MM1F and now i'm stepping up to the real deal... thanks to everyone who put me in contact with Fingbeagle... he's a great guy!

    Oh, that's a steep climb to say the least - from an OLP to on of the, if not the best EBMM there is.

    So happy for You - You are in for a real treat and an experience that's going to change Your playing forever. (Allright, that was too dramatic)

    OLP's are the gateway guitar for a lot of us (I had an OLP Benji) and f'ing is often the next step .

    I am unaware of any cure.......

    Congrats!

    I've never dealt with Keith, but he's always been cool here on the forums. You've probably got a minty-fresh 20th there.

    Peter - glad to hear you got the 20th and work out the deal with Keith.

    From all reports the 20ths are fabulous guitars; enjoy - and don't forget to post pictures once you receive it.
