Question Tone Sample Request

[DJ.]

Does anyone have any examples of the tone difference between a Silhouette Special HSS and Silhouette Special SSS? I am familiar with the HSS but have never heard a SSS or a direct comparison between the two. Need to find out what I am missing and a direct comparison is the best way I know.

Thanks

Did you have an answer already?
I have a Silo HSS, with 'home-made' coilsplit for the humbucker. I did this mod with other guitars earlier.
With my Silo, I can get the single coil sound, but I can let the humbucker come to live in screaming solo's or just a fatter sound.
I made the split with the tone knob, so, that when I want the hunbucker sound, I just push down the tone knob. And off you go...!
I like the single coil sound too, so now I can use them both.
If you compare them A-B then you would probably notice difference in sound when you use a real single coil,. For me, this is very useful and the sound is perfect.

Other possibilities: find someone with a Silo SSS (and same amp!) or uh......
buy a SSS?
