Official Summer NAMM 2008 MM Product Preview!

Selling your car to get a guitar?

I wouldn't go so far though...

On a side note, just chatted with some friends that are playing in an orchestra, their instruments are worth like more than 10k each... Then I look back at my guitars... Thank God

But *most* musicians don't collect, for example, upright double basses. When members on this forum and other guitarists buy multiple guitars they are for very different purposes usually (tunings, tones, styles) which is much different IMO than orchestra pieces.

That said,
I WANT A SILO DOUBLE NECK BFR though I'm sure I'd never use it!!!!!!!!!!

 

[the24thfret]

Probably heresy but am I the only one who finds that 8-4 headstock too long? The normal EBMM stock is shorter thn most 6 strings, this one is longer than any 12 string I've seen. I get the reason....just not so sure

I really like it and it's just how this particular company does it. I've never held one of course so I'm not sure if it'd be *too* long as you're saying.

I like how the 12 string is on the bottom instead of the top. With most doublenecks that have the 12 on top, the guitar becomes too top heavy. Wish I had the money for one of those.

+1!
JP should had done his doubleneck in that format! So he can still shred on the 6!
*The 6-string neck is too low for JP to do any technical stuff I presume, maybe that's why he needed to switch to a normal 6-string mid song...

the24thfret: I was once in an orchestra, and know quite a few people too... Collection? You have no idea

 

[whitestrat]

Now that's cool!!!!

New colours? Maybe I should hold of my new SS order (Sapphire Black) until I know what they are?

 

[Axilla]

Mini Humbuckers?

C'mon - after it's path, this is a one-off.
Why not put into production ?!

...after all, this one's "porn factor" can ALMOST live up to my Pearl Lavender Silo Special...

I LOVE THIS GOLD ONE, but make it a Special, PLEASE

 

[Big Poppa]

This was actually one of two..the other is for Ron Wood...who knows it may be the stealth silo.....

 

[fogman]

...who knows it may be the stealth silo.....

WHAT????
are you saying that figuratively? or are you talking about the dream guitar I mentioned a year or two ago??? Like the Bongo finish???

 

[Mick]

Golden Trussrod screw Perfection in every detail.
Pass that on to Dudley.

Well if Prince was still alive.........or the artist that would be perfect.


@andynpeters: watch out buddy, the gold colour is made from teeth of people who criticized dudley´s work in the past.

Keep up the perfect work, thank you.

I love the Stealth Bongo finish! It would look really awesome on a Silo or JP.

This would mean I'm automatically commited to buying one.
A long while back somebody started one of those if you can have any EBMM dream guitar, what would it be threads. I obviously said a Stealth Silo would be erally cool. BP made some sarcastic comment (that never happens! ) And I had promised that if it were made, that I'd buy one.

Pops, YOU ARE LITERALLY KILLING ME !

Either one, the gold OR the stealth Silo Special... or maybe rather both...
...I just could not keep my wallet in the backpocket if those came available.

*STUNNED*

! ! !


...and congrats to Ronnie Wood. WHAT a guitar !

Where is the Silhouette Special BFR?
Amazing creations BP! I would never be found playing a gold Silo like that unless I turn into Mr. T, but it still looks great. Keep up the amazing work!
