Sup ya'll!
It's been over a decade since my last NGD Post and oh boy i've saved it for a great one. Here are the Specs:
SILVINO Guitars "#6" - "Silberg"
-Swamp ash body with Buckeye Burl Top resin filled with color shift and glow in the dark pigment to give the nebula burst a cool touch
-5A Roasted Maple neck with Endurneck (ish) profile (flatter and thinner) with Ziricote Zero radius Fretboard
-Jescar XXXTRA Jumbo Stainless Steel frets
-Luminlay side dots
-Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Rods
-Fishman Fluence Tosin Abasi set
-Tan Hardware
-Neutrik Jack
-Stranberg Knob
-Extra access Carve on the lower horn
-Signed by John Browne from Monuments
-27" - 25.5" multiscale
I'm extremely appreciative of Kevin for such a gesture. Gifting someone something you've worked so hard on is a true testament to his kindness. It is an understatement to say that with a blue-collar salary in the Caribbean, it would take years of very irresponsible saving to get an instrument of this caliber. Kevin knows this first hand, as he grew up in our small island despite being born in the USA. Him knowing this struggle POV is partly the inspiration for this gift but another huge part is challenging himself and his ability by bringing the stakes up a notch.
While the instrument has some clear differences from the original intellectual property, Like the modified EndurNeck shape and slightly modified lower half It is close enough to infringe on Ola's patents. Matter of fact, Kevin heard from Ola through DMs. He reached out and congratulated him for his attention to detail and craftsmanship. He encouraged him to get out there with his own twist on the formula, while very kindly and tactfully reminding him that this instrument or any instrument with his I.P. could never be sold, and sold it will never be; It is a True Ode to a long-standing friendship that was forged in the precariousness of our environment and mutual respect and admiration while catering to our inner teenage gear nerds by living out a very light-hearted "What if i had a strandberg signature?"
Without further ado, Here is #6:
Shoutout to John Browne for being a cool dude and signing the back plate. Kevin knows i'm a huuuuuuuge fan of his and had him sign it before a gig.
