Hi All,
I really ( I mean really) want to get my hands on a Trans Teal Silo with rosewood neck and natty headstock. Does it even exist? Is there any way to research whether or not this guitar was even ever created?

Thanks for the help!

But they don't offer the finish, so you'd have to try to score one used or NOS.

Good luck, Glenn |B)

I myself LOVE th trans teal Silhouette. I also love the floyd on it actually. I really love the MM vintage trem, but I wish I could still get one with a floyd and more trans finishes. I know that there is million options already...I will try my luck on ebay I guess at some point. They do come up here and there, but that teal one Foggy you have in your pics is AMAZING!!!

And of course I'm sure you knew that they exist with maple necks. This guitar was exactly what I wanted (Pups and all) so when it came up on eBay I pulled the trigger. This guitar RAWKS like none other. What a player!

Yepp, they sure are beauties !

Actually, a 90ies trans-teal Silhouette with rosewood fretboard and natty headstock was actually the first Ball I ever got my hands on. My tech (and our valued forumite) Mick owns one and uses & abuses it quite frequently on stage :D

B.U.T. ! ! !

...if you can get one of those - GET IT ! ! ! :)

Hey guys! How are the EMG's on guitars with pickguards? I'm starting to love EMG's. Live and recording wise. No hassles. I'm asking coz I'm planning to put 81 and 85 on my SUB1. Thanks!:D

Wow thanks for the all the pics and comments! I guess I will just have to continue my search! I think I am more confused now then ever.... maple or rosewood???? White or Black pickgard???? EMG's???? Floyd, Fixed or Vintage!!!!!!! I think I am going to have a brain aneurysm just thinking of the possibilities! Well, if anyone would like to make an even trade on a Trans Teal for a Blue Dawn/ Maple or Vintage Sunburst/ Rosewood Silo just let me know!

Again, thanks for all of your help!
