Johnny hiland joins the ebmm family

[phatduckk]

awesome! the MM endorsee roster is pretty damn stacked

i love that he's keeping it real with the Silo. all around badass!!!

 

[paranoid70]

In all honesty I do not know why more well known players are using Silhouettes. Of all the guitars I played at NAMM last year, nothing feels as right to me as a EBMM Silhouette, Silo Special, 20th Anniversary... whatever. Best guitars ever!

 

[Coffeemug]

This is great news! Johnny is an incredibly gifted player and I just love the fact he's with EBMM now.

Welcome aboard, Johnny Hiland!

 

[jcm900]

good to hear that he joined the family. he's a monster player.

 

[Coffeemug]

Unreal! Now I gotta buy a Silhouette.

That's what I tought as well...

 

[MrMusashi]

ahh.. the class player johnny hiland and ebmm
what a combo that will be!

welcome aboard johnny, and best wishes for the future!

I like the fact that he will be endorsing a stock model and especially this one, since it was the model that started it all!

Welcome aboard, Johnny!

 

[emanon]

Hey BP, back in the day, of all the genres of music, did you really expect to have two of the best "country" pickers as endorsers?

 

[Jimmyb]

That's really cool.

Love the fact that it's a stock guitar as well.

Welcome aboard, Johnny!

i think it's wonderful for the silo to be endorsed by a guy who takes no lead from looks

 

[koogie2k]

Very cool....now the Internet can rest...hahaha..

Congrats to Mr. Hiland and to EBMM. Great guitarist and I look forward to more music from him.

 

[lenny]

Wow this is huge indeed....I wouldnt have expected anyone less.....Johnny is a Monster player and one of the nicest guys your ever gonna meet......the man has Morals and thats something in Nashville these days!!!....Welcome aboard Johnny!!!

 

[bkrumme]

That's great news, BP!

I think now I'm going to officially steal the Silhouette from my wife since she never plays it...

 

[Big Poppa]

As for the question of what I envisioned...I didnt I was in real time with Dudley and we were just creating and trying to get orders.....In this business you have many close calls...hits and misses. You think you have a relationship and you work you butt off whle hearthrob big time artist makes new record and hope that what they tell you halfway happens and then the record comes out and you see his live show and you are nowhere to be found. Please dont name names....Or losing Keith Richards because of the tech...So when you get an opportunity to add Johnny Hiland to your team and family it is a sweet reward.

JH is an awesome addition to the family, congrats BP!

Did JH actually try out all of the EBMM models and then selected the Silo as his #1? Just curious on how and why he picked the Silo (I'm thinking that the multiple pickup options and the neck made the difference)?
