Here is a pic taken over 20 years ago... This blue Sabre w/ binding was stolen during a Biff Baby's gig years ago. If anyone ever sees it please let us know!

Hey Dargin, you are great - 21 mins. after my post, the pic is there !!!!

THANX!

Is it a silo or a SM Prototype?!? It has the hardtail, the later SM-Model has - the block fixed with 3 screws. But I know very little about old Silos, so I can´t judge it.

Look at the bridge. Behind it there is the tell-tale Morse string through block (for lack of a better name) that holds the ball-ends in place behind the tune-o-matic. My guess is that it's a Morse model, but with a creme colored pickup in the neck position.

As a conincidence, I discovered this: eBay: Kansas 25 Unreleased Concert Photos With Steve Morse ! (item 110022158569 end time Aug-22-06 18:08:11 PDT), where the following pic is from..

It seems to be the same prototype, like on the pic with BP: cream-coloured Humbuckers, I think there are black SC´s (hard to see), a really BIG pickguard (a little like Brian May´s).

Comments? Did you see that before???

btw. nice boots :)
