Baritone then? I've never seen these before lol. Surprised the metal heads arent all over this thing!


What do they typically sell for?

 

[mtrejo]

Yup, baritone. I see a used one here: Ernie Ball Music Man Silhouette Baritone Bass Black - Used | The Music Zoo

Someone just recently started a thread about one they picked up…http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-guitars/60090-can-anybody-give-me-some-info-guitar.html

Cool, thanks for the information!

 

[mtrejo]

You bet! I have no personal experience with them as I wish I could offer an opinion but you know how good those can be

Thanks for the info on it BP I saw the one Bob posted and wondered what it was. I seem to remember a beautiful EBMM purple double neck that Eddie had which he played on one of their concert videos. It had what I think was a Baritone on the top (always wondered what it was - now I think I know ).

This thread discusses the guitar and has pics. What a neat guitar!!

Interesting stuff BP. Can't imagine them being an overly popular option, but they do seem to satisfy that niche market. Im honestly confused why they aren't more prolific in the "metal" community. American EBMM extended range guitar... people go nuts for the JP7, but I'd imagine most have never seen this thing.


A 7 string version of it.....
