First Silhouettes

[Ballbuster]

Anyone have an early silhouette - 86 or 87?

Why? Are you looking for pictures?

[Ballbuster]

No. Wondered what the earliest serial number Silhouette is still out there.

That's cool, you might want to check the Serial Number Sticky.

IMPORTANT: My Ernie Ball's Serial # is...

Here's a dude that's selling one on Evilbay.

has anyone played one of the first silo's? do they have the same size neck...? and spec's as they do now? thanks..

I have a 1987. Neck is much the same except no locking tuners - had a locking bar. Biggest difference is pickups. They were all Schallers. No hum canceling electronics.

I've owned an 88, 90, 93, and 03 silhouette. Prefer the 87, only one I still have.

Best sounding EB guitar I've ever owned is the Albert Lee with MM90's. I converted it to a 2 pickup model. WOW! those pickups have power that blasts even the humbuckers.
