Strange Silo

[DaveB]

I was in my local (read v. small) guitar emporium today and for once (shock horror) they had an EBMM.

It was a second hand Silo.

It was a metallic green, had the 5 bolt neck and oiled finish. The neckplate had the old "2 man" musicman logo. Oddly it had 22 frets even though the headstock just said "Silhouette" rather than Silo Special. It had a battery cover (assuming silent circuit fitted) and had a 6 bolt trem with folded steel saddles (I recently saw one like this on a Suhr).

Anybody got any thoughts.....

Metallic green like the Benji?
Maple or rosewood?
Trem or hard tail?
Serial # for EBMM clarification?
Is a pict possible?

Never mind I'll just shut up now.

Darker metallic than the Benji.
Maple.
Trem (like it said in the first post )
Serial no can be obtained (in fact I tried and failed to remember it - there was no letter prefix just numbers)
A pic may be possible if I go back.

Its late here - I'm going to bed now....

Early Silo Specials had a 6-screw Wilkinson trem. Was it something like this?:
