Silhoutte Neck Question

[hottoddy]

I have a cheap OLP pseudo-sillhouette copy which I actually really like. It has me thinking about purchasing either a straight Silo or SS. However, I've never actually seen one in my local stores. GC had some Sub 1s in, and it seemed like their necks were much thicker in back (clubby). Heavy sucker too.

Is the Sub 1 neck exactly the same as the one on the Silos? Thanks.

Hottoddy, nope the Silhouette necks are nothing like the Sub's neck. Where do you live? There maybe other EBMM dealers near you that you just don't know about. I'd say check out anything before buying it. I have a Silhouette Special and 2 Axis Sports and the necks are different between the 2 guitars. I like them both, but for different reasons.

Good luck, Glenn |B)

Thank. I'm in the Portland-metro area. GCs around here carry MM guitar, but I've never seen the Silo. All the necks vary a little bit? I've owned several G&Ls (handmade) and every neck was a bit different in back. What turned me off about the Sub was its extreme clubby feel.

Portland Maine or Oregon? Go here and see if there are any EBMM dealers who have Silo's in stock. http://www.ernieball.com/mmonline/dealers/
