best color on a silo ever.

Did somebody here from the forum win this beauty? If so, post some more pics. And, BTW, a huge congrats to you. I got butter on the mind

Rather than start a new thread, just to let you know that I picked up the MIAC guitar from a fellow Forumite in a non-ebay deal.
Big Thanks to W.Suitor for making it the smoothest deal ever. I'll post some photos in the near future.

Thanks !

Avenue Guitars | NEW - USED - VINTAGE GUITARS

There you go! Sorry for the delayed response.

The best Office moment for me was in Season Two... I believe episode eleven. When Jim and his then girlfriend Katy (the foxy amy Adams) are sitting down watching Pam and Roy all happy after he announced their wedding date...

Katy: Do you think that will ever be us?
Jim: No.
Katy: What is your problem? Why did you even bring me here?
Jim: I don't know. [Pauses] We should break up.

The cutting tone of Jim's delivery was just so priceless. It wasn't the funniest moment ever, but it has always resonated with me. I've been a fan since even before they showed episodes. I've loved the British Office for a long time now, and when they announced Carell would be doing an American version I was hooked.

hahahahaha
I ment that my head was spinning (I don't think there's a user called "my head's spinning )
anyway, are these guitar very rare?
or is it possible that by looking on ebay I might come across another one?

Not very many were built. Somebody mentions the number somewhere -- maybe 30 or so. One just sold on eBay in Europe. Exchange rates made it a bad buy with US $.

 

[WeeGee]

As you said, there were only 30 made (see http://www.ernieball.com/news/17/)

As mentioned, the guitar in the photo is now mine (no 24 of 30) . Incidentally, the case shown in the photo is a 20th anniversary case from 2006 as the original case is the standard EB SKB type (which I've already got a couple of).

Although the colour is listed as vintage white, it's more akin to buttercream/vanilla in person.

White/Buttercream = better than any fancy quilt top ive seen. Simple is classy in my book.

I just need to get off my skinny ass and get a white AL, or silo special, or both. I cant decide between the two! I dont need a green quilt Super sport......i have to keep telling myself this!!!

Blanca Albert with moonstone Rob! That just might be your crown jewel in your impressive line-up.

Very nice win! Post some pics when you can. That's a fantastic looking guitar. I'll second Rob's comments....looks just as good as any of the BFR's. Such a classy look. Enjoy it!
