Yes, the bridge pickup is a DiMarzio Vitual PAF, and the singles are custom-wound DiMarzios. As far as the factory string heights (measured from the top of the plastic pickup cover to the bottom of the string):

Bridge 4/32” or 0.125mm
Middle 5/32” or 0.156mm
Neck 6/32” or 0.188mm

hope that is useful -

Dan
very useful :D
you mean the distance taken by pressing the strings at 12th fret I guess, right?

Hello Dan,

Pulled the trigger on the Silo Bass Serial #G37760, tis very cool, give Bailey a hug for me:)

Keith

Keith,

that is awesome. The Silhouette Bass is a very cool instrument, very addicting. Yours was built on January 9 of 2008 and of course sent to DuBaldo's Fun House.

And give Bunny a hug from Bailey and me -

Diso, this is a pretty rare Axis - non-trem Trans Red with rosewood ... before the SuperSport was introduced, we offered the Axis this way for a brief time.

This was built on November 18 1997 and was shipped across the pond to the U.K. :cool:

Joe, this SSS Silhouette Special was built on Oct 23 1997 and was shipped to Germany. The finish is called Pearl Purple. It would have had a white (which has probably faded to look vintage by now) pearloid pickguard. This was the first year we were using our own MM tremolo instead of the Wilkenson. Nice find!

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me out,
I am thinking of buying a 'Luke' serial no:G26517.
This will be my first MusicMan, and my mum is willing to get it for me
for Christmas, can anyone enlighten me on its origin/date etc?

many thanks...Jaker.

Jaker, welcome to the EB Forums! The Luke you are looking at was built on Dec 27 2004, the finish is Carbon Blue Pearl and it should sport a matching headstock (headstock painted to match the body), which is a nice touch. It was originally shipped to our distributor in the U.K. so I presume it hasn't travelled too far since then. I'm betting this would be a great guitar for you!

Cheers,

Dan
