I've finally finished mutilating my 1996 Silhouette custom. Originally, it had Luke electronics and a plain black pickguard.
I replaced the pickups with a Duncan Pearly Gates in the bridge and a Duncan Tele at the bridge. The switch is a simple 3-way Tele replacement switch and the original pots have been replaced with some fancy pots that I forgot where I bought them. I also replaced the tone capacitor. The pickguard is custom made by Chandler, who were suggested to me by EB and who did a fantastic job on this and on one for my Silhouette Special.
The one thing I wanted to do was add one of them there fancy active tone pots, but the Silhouette's body is not deep enough. It's a shame because I have the battery compartment already in place from the Luke setup.
This guitar plays like a dream. The Pearly Gates matches well with this guitar, with a bright sound that distorts well. It's an awesome guitar for rock and hard rock.
