Nice aquisition! Looks cool in that combo...I would like to see white pearl on that instead of the plain white though. Than again I always prefer pearloid guards to plain 
.
Oh, I also find it funny how all of a sudden EVERYONE loves this color since LUKE has been playing his almost exclussively hahaha.

YES! I was thinking the same. Saw some Big Al's with pearloid, they look great.Nice aquisition! Looks cool in that combo...I would like to see white pearl on that instead of the plain white though. Than again I always prefer pearloid guards to plain
Yes, although I actually found out about the PDN Luke áfter getting the GAS for this Silo (I hadn't been on the forum for quite some time :$)

Yea, that looks nice. I think that might be a vintage white pearl guard though. Which actually might work better since it has more of a yellow tint, and will match nicely with the natural headstock, but then the white pickups might stand out a bit more.

Looks it, feels it, sounds it, but I actually got a great deal. Actually, paid the least of all my balls for it!

Beautiful! I love the family portrait.
So how do you find the sounds on the new baby? What's your take on the tonal differences between the three?

One of the best colors ever. Olive Gold is also an awesome discontinued color.

..or Midas? Actually, I haven't named my guitars. They don't come over when I call them anyway
Pfft, the only thing I'm worse at than describing sound, is playing guitar, but I'll give it a go. It sounds a bit darker than the Luke and Axis, although I believe this to be because of the .10 Elixirs on her...I use .09 Slinkys normally.
But besides that, I think it fits in very nicely between the Axis and the Luke. The Luke with the EMGS has a very compact, compressed sound (which I love) on the humbucker, and I can get a nice quack on the bridge pickup. The Axis has a very open sound with a bite, and very usuable single-coil like sounds in the split positions.
The Silo's Humbucker has a bit less output compared to the Axis, and the split positions are comparable to the Axis' (not the same though). The neck PU is smooooooth..I love it..Doesn't get muddy, even with higher gains.
