Thought I'd like to see what my Silo would look like with a little change.

What do ya's reckon ??

Here's the original for reference (simple, clean & classy):

Reverse Zebra (I quite like it - just adds a little more zing !) :

I'm not a fan of white guitars myself, but that being the case, I'd definitely do something besides plain white pickups.

Dizzy, I’d like to know how you’d change half of each humbucker, or all of it for that matter, without changing out the actual pickup. I’ve a similar deal on my Sil Special. Easy to buy to single covers, but buckers have no covers. I also notice that your middle cover has yellowed while the buckers stayed pure white. Same here.

I’ve always liked off-white guitars, but not fond of white pearl pg’s. If I was willing to change to black humbuckers, I’d use a plain black pg with black single coil cover and knobs. Classic and classy.

The buckers were just taken from the Dimarzio site.
Any changes would be just buying new PAF PROs and swapping them.
I was actually surprised at all of the colour combinations for their pickups !
