Folks, sad but true - time to change my signature soon.
Our singer (guitarist too) has been fooling and tooling around with my Balls for quite a long time. He's - or let's rather say HAS BEEN a Str@t player for most of his electrical life.

Now he has finally succeeded in talking me into selling him my red Silo Special.
Boohoo... *sniff*...
Hard to let her go, but hey - another Ball-addict :D

Introducing MIKE:

You get the fact that he's barely taller then the guitar ?! ;)

...the grumpy bass playa in the back was just disappointed that I didn't bring him a Bongo for a change ... ;) :D :D

Hello goodbye hello goodbye... *singeling*

Cheers

Axel

Good job Axi!

So what are you buying to replace her????

Nuthin' planned for the moment. I'm comfortable with the 2 remaining pimp-Silo-Specials :D
Apart from that, I'm still permanently fiddling around with my MM90ies equipped AS & ASS and a few others... :rolleyes:

I'm currently reviewing my FX section and amp setup which is pretty time consuming at the moment - the combinations & results are endless...

Not quite sure yet, but I'm still tempted by two Ball models:
- JP with piezo
- 20th Silhouette

...or - should this ever come to market - Silhouette Special BFR maybe... :rolleyes:

I've long been a fan of that red Silo Spec of yours Axel...but at least it went to someone you know. Hopefully his Ball addiction has just started.

Isn't it a great feeling when you let someone try out a Music Man guitar and they wonder how they ever went without one?

Yeah Brasco, but this is exactly what happens every single time when others try/play my Balls.
...just that I normally don't agree to sell them one ;)

Nice work Ax - that's a great looking guitar.

But Bloody hell, is he like 4'11" or something ??
Even the Silo Spec looks big on him !! :D

I don't know how tall exactly he is, but he is even wearing shoes with thick soles ;)

BUT... his voice is the one of a bluesman with 40 years stage experience - smoky, boozy, bluesy... :D - and always lots of pain & feeling to it. And now he's got the right "tool", too.
Our front-hog :cool:

WE LOVE MIKE !
