Am I crazy to want another 20th Ann. Silo?

[roburado]

Okay, so I want pretty much one of each model of guitar that EBMM makes.

However, for the past few days I've been giving the 20th Ann. Silo a lot of attention. It's so freakin' good that I wish I had another one with piezo. It's sort of irrational, because I still want an AL, a Luke, an ASS, and a regular Silo. Argh...It's madness!

So, am I crazy?

 

[robelinda2]

Think about getting another one, then buy an AL.

 

[Jonny Dubai]

Crazy ...yes, but that dosent mean your not going to get it!!!!!

 

[roburado]

Ah...I knew I could count on Rob to tell me to buy an AL before anything else.

 

[brasco68]

Maybe I'm delusional..but it makes sense to me. I'd get another Super Sport if I could...only this time with MM90's.

Rob, do you have any available sound clips comparing the Silo and an Al? I'd be really interested

[robelinda2]

The AL and Silo Special ( both SSS ) do sound similar, naturally. However the extra bit of class that the AL has in feel puts it above in my book. Am working on clips.

Rob, if you do find a 20th w/piezo you should jump on it, rare as they are. AL can be bought anytime.

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

The 20ths are awesome. If you feel you need one that has a piezo, don't hesitate to pick one up!

 

[wolfbone07]

Yes, the piezo version of the 20th is really nice. I count myself quite fortunate to have acquired one.

No you're not. I know EXACTLY where you're coming from. I bought one, maple and trem, no piezo. Then it hit me, and I hunted for a RW with piezo and trem, and I got one. And I still feel like buying one more now with RW and hardtail.

Damn...

P.S. here's something to add to your GAS:

 

[DJ.]

The piezo model is difficult to find. I called one dealer that had four 20ths in stock, including a piezo version. I decided to think about it and when I called back a couple of days later two were gone, including the piezo. I snagged the last tremolo version they had.

 

[fogman]

Out of the 366 20th made only 39 of them have piezo!
Being only around 10% of your chances, I'd grab one!

 

[Jimmyb]

You're not crazy at all for wanting another one, especially with the piezo.

I played my 20th with piezo at rehearsal last night, it's just a magnificent guitar.

 

[dmullen]

I'd love to find another 20th with piezo.

 

[paranoid70]

This one has been on craigslist for about a month now. I would get it if I didn't have one already. (It's in Orange County, CA near Los Angeles).

I am selling a NEW MusicMan Silhouette 20th Anniversary model guitar (w/PIEZO system and special factory case)---a serious piece. Very cool design, and of course exceptional playability and sound. This will come to you NEW W/ WARRANTY, NOT AS A SECOND & of course has the highest playability you'd expect from Music Man. It has most of the same features as the regular Silhouette, w/ a few upgrades such as the optional amazing Piezo system that makes the guitar sound like an acoustic. You won't be disappointed. No lowballers or international buyers. thanks!

 

[Jimmyb]

Nice how International buyers get lumbered in with lowballers there....

 

[GWDavis28]

Rob your not crazy at all man, if I had the $ I'd try to pickup a rw fretboard one, but it's not in the card for a long time for me man.

If you've got the $, go for it.

I have a trem/rosewood/piezo and came very very close to ordering a hardtail/maple model at the same time. I can understand the GAS - once you've played a 20th you realize how special it is!

 

[Zaphoid]

I had a regular 20th and grabbed a 20th with piezo a little while ago. The piezo has been my main with the non-piezo 20th pulling secondary duty. So nice to play a gig and switch guitars for alternate tunings and have the same killer tone. You arent crazy at all. The 20th is the perfect guitar for me.
