:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
Do you guys know what finish this is, and if it's still available? The wood has some pretty sweet looking grain too.
Even if this finish is no longer available, props to EBMM for making such a beautiful instrument!

Hmm...
Tobacco Burst.
I guess it's not available anymore.
That is a beautiful guitar though. I wonder if we have any knucklehead's with that config?
Thanks guys,

Yep that is a great looking Silo, very classic, too bad that MF shows you that but if you hit buy it you would get a Candy Red, nothing wrong with Candy Red, i love Red guitars but kind of misleading I suppose.

^^Ya, I noticed that a lot on Musician's Friend actually, they'll advertise a guitar that has a particular color but they're actually selling something completely different.
Candy Red is a great color.

Looks like an ash body, which is probably why that finish was once offered.

I'm a sucker for burst finishes, well, anything you can see the woodgrain through, actually, and that's a really nice one. :eek:

It's actually not too much different from the Vintage Sunburst you can get now, just a little lighter. I just got mine in that color, but with a shell guard, and it's very easy on the eyes. :D
