ok a few things... yay, i finally got it. I gotta thank Pete for going out of his way to call up UPS and try n see what's up. he didnt have to and my UPS post wasnt any way a distress call to get his help.. he's just cool like that. i have a feeling he's gonna end up with more of my money some day
LoL
so the guitar... well, first off, it looks something liek this
damn its pretty!!!! i gotta give pete props for saying "you sure you want a rosewood board with the non-scary headstock? id get maple". so ya, maple with the non-matching looks great!!! i love this thing/ prettiest guitar ever.
check out the grain. its like wavy lines going from the bridge towards the neck, then all quilty-flamey-like things (i have no idea what to call it) from hi E to low E.
nope... that's not an upgraded top. the luck of the draw with a "standard" top was on my side this time. im super stoked. this thing is gorgeous!!!
honestly... im not a birdseye nut so i havent even looked to see how the neck looks. i guess i could get up can check it out - but if i get my hands on that axe again ill never finish this post.
so anywho... this thing sounds amazing too! im really, really bad at describing tone but i must say thing guitar IS everything everyone has said it is. i was going to A/B it with my Les Paul cuz i heard some people compare them but I couldnt... I unplugged the Les Paul in like 15 seconds.
honestly this thing is amazing. im a happy guy. id never played a silo before so i was excited to feel the neck. my hands are pretty good at adapting to new necks so i wasnt worried about that at all. I like the neck shape a lot. Its nice and comfortable. not flat, not clubby... its nice.
anywho... ya this thing is dope!
thanks to everyone that got this thing into my hands: The engineering masters at MM, of course Pops n Dudley, Pete for being more than happy to taking my money, tommy for the review that "sold" me, Tristan for those videos he does, the academy... and of course the UPS guy
