Pic Request - Silo (not Silo Special) internals

[Jim7895]

Does anyone have a picture they could share of the pickup routing and back side of a silo pick guard?

I'm considering getting a silo, but would like to do some pickup switching mods to it.

I'd like to see how much room is in the control cavity / pickup route.

Thanks!

Jim,

I don't have a Silo but I'm pretty sure they still have the universal (or swimming pool) route - at least that is what they had originally back in the days when you could get the Silo with either the h/s/h, s/s/h, s/s/s, or h/h configured pickguards (and you could buy extra pickguards to "swap out" at any time thanks to the molex connector to the output jack).

These are from a 2007 Silo

These are from a 1995 silo special

I really like the molex connector. One can get the pick guard assembly off without desoldering.

Looks roomy enough for what I plan to do. Since they already do coil splitting, I assume the humbuckers are four conductor wiring.

Thanks for the photos folks!

Yes they are four conductor, but those pickups are not stock. They are Seymour Duncan Black Backs (just so there's no confusion).
