NGD - Silhouette Special

Sorry, I have corrected my post now. (y)
All good, digital pics, computers and colors can be impossible. And I am also color blind to some shades which complicates things even more! I only know because the serial number check said so. :-)
 
Love this model as well. Great all - rounder, comfy body style. Love the flexibility of an HSS pickup rout.

Gold and Butter are nice, but I prefer the classic colours…
I might get a maple board one with 3 single coils at some point in the future. That could very well be the perfect Strat for me.
 
Yes it could but a SSS Cutlass or a SSS Albert Lee could be that as well
The Cutlass would be the obvious choice, but it features a soft V neck profile and V necks are not for me. The Albert Lee body shape doesn’t work for me. So a maple board SSS Silo Special would be the perfect EBMM SSS Strat for me.
 
The Albert Lee body shape doesn’t work for me.

It was the same for me : the shape was too weird for me.
Then I tried one.
And I bought it o_O

The shape of the AL is in fact really ergonomic and its weirdness has a visual impact when you play on stage

Since I have already found the perfect EBMM for me, it will be a SSS Silo Special (SSSSS?) if I ever get another guitar to replace one of my SSS Strats (or all of them).
