CS should fix you up.

Going to edit this because I think everyone would rather you first order it through an MM dealer. But if one is not near you, then CS will sell them directly. I bought two this past year, one fully loaded.

Here is mine with white pearloid, slightly different look than the others with the black on white. I really like it, but I am thinking of putting black ice on her.

Roubster,

What do you have this one loaded with? One of the PG's I want to do for a Silo is three stacked single coils (like the two Dimarzio's you have).

Yea I am really lovin it myself! I am thinking of putting a black ice PG on her though. I am a sucker for darker combinations. I think this combo I have would probably work better on a lighter color like pearl blue or I think it would look REALLY cool on Candy Red.
Anyway, I have the DiMarzio Fast Track 1s in there. They are really cool sounding. Basically a fatter single coil sound without the hum. And of course Vinnie Moore and Greg Howe use them. I would also maybe look into the Cruiser by DiMarzio. Andy Timmons uses that one, and he has a beautiful tone...one of my favorites.

I'm thinking of loading one up with a Tone Zone S, Fast track 1, and Air Norton S. Supposedly, Billy Corgan also used the Dimarzio Stacked singles, but I'm not sure which models. He's another big influence of mine.
