JD, swing up to Beller's on Thursday afternoon, these are going fast - 2 more Silo20s and the last trans orange AX20 went out today! The only AX40 left is the trans gold one pictured on the site. I still have a few JP50s left, along with a handful of basses.

Indeed, I can't wait to see how the public responds to these! Total gateway application here. It's like Scion/Toyota.

Scion (who is manufactured by Toyota) produces vehicles in a lower price range with an appeal to the younger crowd so that they can familiarize themselves with the quality (despite the cheaper cost) and learn to grow comfortable and appreciate it. So down the road when they have the means to purchase a more upscale car, the first thing they'll think is, "I should get a Toyota, Scion did me well!"

I love this concept of SBMM, way to go BP I am a big fan of this.

How are the necks finished? Gloss or oil and wax?

They have a very thin satin finish which feels very similar to the oil/wax. It isn't a "noticeable" finish, and I like that!

These guitars are really intriguing. My kids want to start playing (oh noes! less money for MY guitars!) and those Silo20 guitars are right in the price range...

Bought a Silo20, right price and I played a MM Silo at the dallas Guitar Festival a few weeks back, had been awhile since I tried one and relly liked it, this allows me to get something similar at a price I can handle right now and plan ahead for my next EBMM
