OK...I will play. How about a Black Silo w/Black Ice Pickguard w/matching headstock?

That's easy Keith!

Silo Special SSS or Albert Lee SSS with a white pg and pu covers/knobs...buy yourself a black pg so you can jump back and forth between Gilmour Black Strat and Blackie optics. :cool:

One problem with this could be the fact that you don't exactly love singlecoils...and plain pg's...but hey, every collection needs a great SSS guitar.

EDIT: I voted for the AL...

Keith.....2 options for you....

#1: the black/black HH Al at Petes.
#2: wait for me to complete my sub changes. I'm going full black paint, headstock is already black, going to recontour the horns to match a Luke with Silo Spec pickups and silent circuit HSS and your old pearl white pickguard. Pickups have black covers and there's a battery on/off switch so you can leave the guitar plugged in and not drain the battery. I know that after some time, I'll put it up for sale.

I would go for a black Silo Special as well...so many options and so easy to mod to whatever you want.

Pete, you having a Exclusive DuBaldo run or what? You did manage to get those 2 honeyburst Silos...anyone buy em yet?

Hey Keith-

Congrats on the quitting smoking. My dad smoked for 40+ years and quit a few years back... i remember it being a tough one.

I say go with a Silo so when you sell it i can buy it :)

I still say AL though. But I do understand 'roasted' changes things.
