Oooops I did it again :D! Except this time I got me a Silhouette Special on order w/ THE MAN Pete. I actually had a Axis SS on order in Pacific Blue Burst fully loaded, which should have been done pretty soon, but for some financial reasons I decided to Axe that order and switch it with the Silo Special. All you ASS lovers (hehehe) dont hate me, because I will own one at some point of course :).

However one of the MAIN reason why I ordered the Silo special is because of the GREAT Vinnie Moore!!! He just inspires me SOOOO freakin much, especially since I got his LIVE! album few days ago. Whoever does not have this Live album, IT'S A MUST!!!

So the configuration I got is: HSS piezo trem, rosewood board, Carbon Blue Pearl, Natty headstock and Black PG.
Once I get it I will most probably also change the pups to what Vinnie uses which I believe are DiMarzio Fast Track 1 in neck and middle, and probably a Tone Zone in bridge or a Norton.
I absolutley love CBP color, and had it on the Luke and this combo is just perfect I think...BUT I was also inspires by one of the SEXIEST Silos I have ever seen. I found it a few days ago online, and unfortunatly these are not available anymore, unless I get lucky on eBay. This is what it looks like:

congrats! Silo Special rocks, as does that Vinnie live cd, great playing!

also if you dont mind me asking, what happens to the PBB Axis now? does it just become store stock? i thought it not allowed to cancel an order so late, my dealer would tear me a new arse!

I used to have a HSS silo with a maple board in this colour. Why did I sell it?! It was years ago mind, and I didnt know any better!
