I just ordered a candy red/rosewood silo spc(awesome axe:D).I am replacing the strat style knobs with domes and i am replacing the pearl white pick guard.Problem,,,I have done searches every where i can think of for EBMMSS pickguards(yahoo,google,e-bay,all the on line retail music giants).I see lots of pics on here with various different kinds of finish's ,materials,etc.WHERE IN THE WORLD did you guys order these from?

Sorry if this topic is run into the ground and i missed it.I tried doing a forum search and got nothing.Any info is greatly appreciated.

Oh yeah,EBMMSS isnt how i typed it in the search engines to look.I just didnt want to type all that out.

Try Pickguard Heaven on the net, they have the patterns for pretty much all of the EBMM guitars and basses.

There's also an Ebay shop called Dazbootman who also does some EBMM stuff

Good luck

You can order the pickguards directly from EBMM! Thats what I did. If you want something different material wise than call Pickguard Heaven as DrBob said...they make them for all EBMMs configurations.

Which pickguard were you thinking of slapping on the Silo? I think Black Pearl would be really cool with Candy Red. I got a Silo for my friend a while back which was also Candy Red, and it had a Abalone guard. I think it looked pretty cool.

Hi Craig,

I just answered your PM. The PG on my cady red SS is "Black Ice" and is available through your EBMM dealer, maybe Pete DuBaldo here on the forum.

Coolest PG for Candy Red !

Cheers

Axel

Was that candy red maple or rose??I am thinking darker with rose and lighter with maple.Mine is the rosewood.I love the black ice on Ax's candy red and think that may be the one.Just gourgeous.

Thanx again guys.You have been very helpfull.

It was on rosewood with matching head, so it was quite dark. But the abalone definately adds some interesting character to the red. I think Moonstone would be cool too. I'm thinking of putting a moonstone on my Silo Special.

Dude. you wanna get rid of your white guard? I'd be interested in buying it off of you. My Silo is, Black/Rosewood with a blak 'guard. It's too black.

I like the black black ice pg on Axel's SS a lot,but,i am undecided.You now how it is with musicians,you can have 6 or 7 different kinds of something lying around and want more.

I am gonna hang onto it if and when i replace it.I am kind of a compulsive/indecisive and might switch on a whim.I had a strat that i swapped necks on constantly.Thats a great thing about bolt ons.
