<div class="bbWrapper">Hi all. Have read through this whole thread over the last two evenings. I haven’t posted on this forum for many years, but I just acquired an EBMM Silo Special after not having an EBMM for several years. I was curious if anyone can describe the difference in neck shape between the Silo Special and the AL. I have played a couple of AL models in the past at a store, but do not really remember how the neck was shaped. The Silo is surprisingly comfortable considering that I typically prefer wide and fat necks and I am gassing for an AL, but there are none available locally for me to try. I’d like to start with a SSS with Trem model first.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">My first MM was a Silhouette Special. I couldn&#039;t honestly tell you how different it is from the AL neck. The AL is just a classic round C shape. It fits perfectly in hands and is really comfortable for long gigs. No doubt you&#039;ll love it. Main difference is the AL sounds and looks so much better than the Silo.</div>
