Beth,
Thanks for the nudge. I'm curious to see what the response will be to this question. I've been intrigued by this beast and figure I'll eventually have to add one to the collection.

Fred,
She asked me to keep that confidential.
So don't do anything that'll have to make me get them out!!!
Or use the ones of you wearing that silly hat in the hotel room.....oh never mind!

Hey Beth-
If you don't mind me asking, what's behind the question? You guys thinking about dropping it from the line to make room for, say, another guitar model?

Hey Jason,
I'd like to find the Silo Bass Guitar players out there because I've got a customer in Hong Kong who would like to talk to other Silo Bass Players about the instrument. I'm hoping that he will register and post. Andrzej, come on down!
I don't think we'll be discontinuing it anytime soon, it's one of BP's favorite instruments!

Hi Dave,
We've always got one or two at the NAMM show in Anaheim during the winter, but I'm not sure if S&T will have one at LGS. Dave, I honestly think that you would appreciate this instrument as much as Stuart Smith from the Eagles, Steven Van Zant from Bruce Springsteen's band and Joe Perry from Aerosmith if you were to buy one sight unseen. Come on, Dave, you know Music Man! BP couldn't be wrong!!! Look at the open house photos just posted, he's tearing one up there!

Beth said:Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to open a thread about the Silhouette Bass Guitar by Music Man. Does anyone here have one? What tuning is it? How do you like it?
-Beth
My opinion of it is that there aren't enough of them floating around. I've been looking to pick one up for quite a while now and have never even managed to see one in the flesh. I've bid on a few, but haven't been the winner yet.

Beth you should change your name to "Siren" - tempting unsuspecting males with fast Saabs and faster guitars!
I'd love to get one (and of course knowing me one day I will do!)

Hi Beth,
Sorry for the ignorance on this one, but do you mean Silhouette Baritone when you say Silhouette Bass? Are they a regular production guitar in the EBMM line-up cause I didn't see anything about them in the instrument section. Can these be easily ordered from you guys? Are they in the same price range as the Silhouette and Silhouette Special?
Thanks,
Scott
