thats a damn good price!

Damn I wish I had the dough. New bridge pup and a setup for standard tuning...

Does the Benji have a unique body shape? It doesn't look quite like any of the other EBMMs. Closest seems to be a Silo. Kind of like it's somewhere between a JP and Silo. Looks nice, I think.

Oh...does the Silo Special have a different body from the Silo?

 

[Progdude]

whats that inlay?

Yes... The horns are slightly shorter, among other tiny differences. Dudley and Sterling actually went back and redesigned the basic body when they made the Silhouette Special - they didn't just slap a 22-fret neck on a Silhouette body, adjust the routes and call it a day...


I lilke the Benji - it's sooo simple, and that appeals to me... Of course, I don't need one, but it's cool...

Brass Knuckle inlay......

Brass Knuckle inlay......

is his signature on the headstock? Id love a new Silo at that price but if it has his name on it and that inlay I dont think Id buy it.

I believe it is.

Dude, don't worry about Benji's signature or logo on the guitar, it's a great deal and if you like it, get it.

It's a tweaked Silo Special.

I know but its the guy from good charlotte's sig guitar That depresses me greatly. If it was a non sig Silo it would be mine!

 

[GWDavis28]

Yah so, he may not be your cup of tea, but man he digs the same kind of quality instruments as you and I and everyone else that comes here.

It's a great price, but if your not into it, your not into it.

Well then I guess it won't be yours.

Shame if you wanted one at a good price, because it's the same fantastic MM quality that you see in all of their guitars

a full on MM for less than $600... thats dope!

 

[kompressaur]

I dont know Good Charlotte's music,or anything about Benji Madden but its an ebmm - I cant ever remember them releasing anything less than top notch so why would this be any different?

single pup guitars look cool imo.

 

[SteveB]

I don't know the first thing about Benji or his band, but I played one of those guitars at the Open House and it kicked ass! It feels so.. SOLID.

I'd play it.
