Blast from the past: have you seen this stolen guitar?

[daneford]

Keep us updated. Been following this post for years.

Thank you sir, and will do.

And while we wait, here's a pic I found not too long ago from shortly after I got it. Must've been around 95-96. Taken with my cell, so apologies for the quality.

Not sure what my brief affinity for UNC basketball was about.

I still have this pickguard/pickups. As mentioned before, I changed it to a white hsh. I kept the case for years, but finally let go of it late last year.

Unfortunately, no further communication from user guitarcenter.

Please keep an eye out. I keep hoping....

If I can't get it back, maybe the ebmm gods will do a dealer run with a Birdseye maple neck in that green color.

Dude can dream, can't he?

Bump for my periodic "putting good vibes out there" post. Still on the hunt.

Rock on, my brothers and sisters.

I’m actually on the hunt for the 1/3 that wasn’t stolen. If I come across yours I’ll definitely let you know.

I'm sorry, but what is "the 1/3?"

I should have been more clear. Its my understanding Lincoln had 3 or these guitars built. He currently owns one, you own one (if it can be tracked down), and there is one more that I could track down to buy.

Ahhh, I understand. There were 4 total. Mine was a regular silo body and was the one on the album. The other three had no bevels, were flat tops like a strat, and were lighter in color.

Of the flat tops, Lincoln has one, some guy here (not a currently active poster) bought one, and no idea on the third.

Periodic bump to keep the thread alive.

Still looking.

When you got the guitar from Lincoln, was it an HSS configuration? Do you know what the pickups were?

When I got it from Lincoln, it was sss. Black pickguard, dimarzio true velvets.

I bought two additional pickguards and pickups from him. Both white, one hss, one hsh. The hss had a JB and a stacked single. I added a middle pickup. Hsh had a tone zone bridge, paf pro neck, and a Duncan single in the middle.

With the molex connectors, I could swap them out. When it was stolen, it had the hsh on it.

I still have the hss and sss pickguards. The JB lives in the bridge of a silo special I've had for about 20 yrs.

Lincoln sold another silo to a local pastor. I told him I wanted it if he ever sold it, but years went by and I think he moved to Hawaii. Pretty sure it eventually got sold.

If you've got any info on any of the green guitars, please let me know.
