regulation about paint and what you put in, same regulation that lead to un-recessed the neck plate.

what in the name does the recessing of the neck plate have to do with the environment??

paint, my friend. Due to environment regulation they had to change the paint that became more fragile when you were removing the neck hence damaging the finish when you were screwing too tight.

so EBMM decided to un-recessed the neck plate to avoid such problem

Love the blueburst color! It works just as well on the Silo as it does on the Morse.

Of all the pics that could receive a "typical" Dizz comment, that is NOT one of them.

I just spent way more time appreciating the lady, rather than the guitar

I s'pose what I really meant to say was :

" Wow, what a great shot....... and what a stunningly beautiful woman "

with the compliment intended in the best way possible

When you first see a girl you figure you are going to see he playing cowboy chords. I was very impressed with the stretch and chord voicing's till BP said she is licensed to fly commercial airlines. Now that is what I call impressive.

Hey, all. I do, indeed, adore my Silhouette (the blueburst) and Silhouette Special. The Silhouette was my first guitar, and is still the don't-touch-it-don't-point-don't-look-at-it guitar. The only difference is that the tags are long gone, and I play it incessantly.
