Natural Silhouette with a maple board
Did this ever exist?

I don't believe in the traditional sense it ever did.
Here's some pics of which someone no doubt stripped themselves.
You can tell it's not done by EBMM as the finish is nowhere close to their standards.

Change the p/g, maybe a rosewood board, it would look pretty cool.

I can see why they are painted....basswood is just not visually pleasing.

It looks like the guitar you would keep up at the cabin.

Believe it's alder, and alder is usually not very purty either, though this one in particular is pretty knotty.

iirc the natural Silos were offered in the 93 brochure (the one with EVH on the front). I've seen a few on ebay over the last couple of years. BP himself was after a mint one when it was up for sale about a year or so ago
