Lenny,

Stately looking Sil you have there! Love it.

I have a blue Sil Sp w/white pearloid; never been crazy about the pearl pg on it. Have been considering getting one in abalone, which I think would look great.

Nice work, man. They all lookin good.

Thanx Dude,The white Ice P/G is subtle enough i think that it adds to the beauty of the Silo, and with the clip connector they are very easy to change out....Go for it!:D

Tak makes superb acoustics. I had a Garth Brooks Tak with a cedar top. Blew my old Martins, Guilds and Gibs away in every respect.
