Music Man BFR Silhouette HSH, Silver Flake Overview
One of a kind. The Music Man BFR Silo HSH is testament to Music Man's world class craftsmanship and expertise in design. Featuring a DiMarzio Super Distortion, Chopper, and Super II, this guitar boasts a trio of world class humbucking pickups which deliver waves of emotive, articulate, and distinctive tone.

Sleek and shiny. As you would expect from such a sublime guitar, the playability is top notch. The figured roasted maple neck and ebony fretboard go hand in hand, offering a bright, punchy resonance and super smooth feel. And the neck is complemented by hand-rubbed gunstock oil for eliminating friction. The hardware is, of course, exceptional, with Schaller locking tuners keeping your tuning as tight as possible. It's not often you come across a guitar of this ilk - and it's unlikely you'll ever see this rarity again. A true gem.
