The EB MM Silhouette Special

"In 15 years of professional playing, I have own and tried different brands of guitars, Ibanez, Fender, etc...the Fenders from the USA expensive ones to the cheap Mexican and Japanese. Sometimes the cheap guitars with a few variations were better than the expensive ones. The truth is that I had to modify them all trying to get the best sound and playability, and never was really satisfied.

With the Silhouette Special, I instantly found the Blues-Rock sound I always looked for in Strats, even more consistent, tuned and balanced.

The neck is very comfortable and easy to adjust.
The bridge is the best tremolo I have ever seen. It has the sound of a vintage tremolo, and stays in tune even after you abuse of it.
The body has perfect balance and is very comfortable.
I love the head shape. Perfect machine heads and nut.
The sound of the neck single pickup is great. The Humbucker (mine are HSS) is like the sound of a single but warmer, also perfect for my taste.
The freshness, elegance, coolness design of all MM guitars. They all have great personality and distinction.

It is a pleasure to play with this guitar: It really shortens the way between the instrument and me, to make music. Thanks to EB MM!"
