(Nearly) New Gear Day!
Yes! I ordered a Silhouette Special and now waiting to be delivered here in Europe!
Actually I did not order just ‘a’ Silo:
Music Man did an exclusive release in collaboration with Roy Ziv honoring the 2005 MIAC Silhouette Special seen throughout his work.
This guitar is an exact new release of the guitar Roy used for more than 20 years.
Actually there are a few upgrades compared to the 2005 model which even make it a better release:
Roasted Maple neck
Stainless Steel frets
Compensated nut
Also the strings as from the factory are 10’s (normal 9, but to meet Roy Ziv’s setup)
As a student of Roy’s ‘Solo School’ I was heavily influenced by this new axe.
It will be my first Music Man guitar and my only experience with EBMM guitars in my life was a brief play on a Luke many years ago. What I remember then is that the neck felt sooo very smooth like butter and the sound of the pickups was so very defined.
As a new reader here on the forum for a few months I have read in many posts a lot of people dig the Silo big time and ‘cannot live without it’ so it seems I cannot go wrong here.
I’m very pumped to receive it in some days and will share my experience and pics here of course.
More info about this release (and eventually order it): Roy Ziv Inspired Silhouette Special
In the meantime if you wanna hear it, check Roy’s livestreams, f.e. here:

To be continued…
