Request for pics and name of a finish...

[Axilla]

Hi folks,

I'm desperately looking for a finish I can jsut describe as going from yellowish in the middle of the guitar to somwhat redish on the outer edges. The finish should be somewhat metallic or sparkle and I think I've seen pics of a Silo that finish before on the forum but can't remember the name...

Help me please *sniff*

I wanna say you are thinking of Autumn Redrise. I have only seen a JP in this color, but i'd say there are other MM guitars in this color.

Definitely Autumn Redrise!!
Unless you work some magic with Mystic Dream!!:

For real pics of AR see this thread

Autumn Redburst?

Ax, I use to have a JP in this color, it's an awesome color.

I think the Autumn Red Burst fits the description nicely, as the Autumn Red Rise is more to a left and right/up and down kinda pattern:
Here's Paul Warren's JP7 in Autumn Red Rise:

Autumn Redburst?

CANDID !!!

You absolutely nailed it !!!
These pics of your guitar were exactly the ones I saw a while ago.
Damn, that's soooooo schweet !

I came across a guy on the web who just decribed the finish of a Silo Special he would sell and this led me to post my question. If I'm lucky it'll be perhaps one a bit like yours. OMG would I love it !!!

Thanks pals for yer help !!!

Axel

Ya now that I think about it it's more likely redburst than redrise. Redburst is cool though!

 

[Axilla]

P.S.: YOU GUYS RULE ! ! !

...period.

GWDavis: Boy, that Autumn Redrist also kicks major a** !!!

 

[GWDavis28]

Ax, yah man it's an awesome color.

Good luck on the purchase, Axel. It is sweet, sho nuff.

I still have a preference for the rosewood board tone, though this one is set up to play like no other guitar I've ever laid my little paws on.

WHERE did you find that, Joe ?
I'm desperately looking for the person that is selling it @ musikerflohmarkt, but could not get him by mail so far... a pitty !!

Any hint would be sooo much appreciated !

 

[robelinda2]

[Astrofreq]

Not really my thing, but I understand why you guys like it. It's interesting.

 

[joe web]

Thanks a bunch, Joe!
I'm still waiting for a reply from him. Let's see.
It's frankly gorgeous but I tend to say the price he asks is a little too high for a used 2nd hand one in non-mint condition...
Let's wait and see !
Call me insane, but I'm currently completely insecure about the next Ball to buy.
The options are:

- that mentioned autumn redrise Silo Special
- a pre-D-SONIC basic Petrucci
- a floyded Silo in trans-teal
- a Luke or an ASS ?!?

Aaaaargh !
This hurts so bad...


...but who am I telling...
