Looks real nice!!!
Abalone is great with almost any darker color I think. But Rob, I think that white pearloid is cool with black pups, but you probably dont want to change em out. Maybe black ice w/ white pups?
I just love the fact that there is endless choices...but than again it is not that great when I cant have em all at once...yet :D.

oh yeah i didnt think about the pup colours, dang! So you may be right, abalone would look wrong with white pups, black ice maybe the one, i love black ice, good thinking!!!!!

changing pickguard is cheaper than buying a new silo, so i'm gonna do it and see!

I'm thinking to do some changes on my Silo as well. I have the black pearloid right now...but I was thinking maybe straight black and zebra pickups?? I was thinking of changing them around a bit. I like changing stuff around :).

Sorry about the hi-jack Greg, hehehe. Have you thought of changing the tone knobs on your Silo? I personally like the dome knobs.

No problem guys!

Love talking EB's with ya.

I'm not touchin' a thing on this guitar. It's perfect the way it is.

Well, now it is. I did remove a trem spring, now it has three. Got it set back up finally. Broke the B string on it, so I restrung it and AGAIN, broke the B string!!!

DAMNIT!!!

I guess you really gotta pull 'em tight before locking them. It broke at the tuner so there's probably a sharp edge there. Doesn't like much wrap.

It's all good now.

:cool:

That's FANTASTIC looking Lenny!!!

So beautiful.

Love the maple board.

Ima have to have two.

Want a maple boarded guitar pretty bad. Don't own a single one. Four guitars and they're all RW.

Thanx Guyz!
yah i think it compliments the BD rather nicely while keeping with the original look the guitar had ,i think Black of anykind with white P/U's is kinda funny looking but thats why there are sooooooo many choices sumpin fer evryone! hahaha

I think the guitar market would be very different if all guitarists were blind...

Or if guitars were invisible :D
