This is an american made silhouette, called the SUB 1. Which is basically a stripped down version of their silhouette to offers it more at a way more affordable price point. Mine was the HH version with all satin black and a black pickguard, it was sexy as hell!!
UTILIZATION
Great guitar! Very plain in reality but such a great guitar! The body's perfectly sized, very very comfortable, and the neck is the most important part. All musicman guitars have gained fame for their super 10" radius necks! This is no different! So comfortable, easy to play and setup well from the beginning also.
The switching is easy to do as well, 2 humbuckers with a 3 way and 1 vol and 1 tone, can't get any easier than that!
SOUNDS
Sounds quite good actually. Although this is probably where they slacked the most to cut costs, the pickups still sounded decent for medium gain, clean stuff.
I wouldn't say they're the greatest, they had some sterile moments, especially the distortion. It was generally raspy and a bit fizzy. Couldn't do high gain well either, it just seemed to be way too much for the pickups to handle.
Otherwise, for a more versatile set of sounds, one would probably need to upgrade the pickups.
OVERALL OPINION
This is a great guitar at an affordable price. The look is great too! Some of them come with a variety of different pickguards, mainly the chrome one or cool satin finishes in different colors. The neck is always tried and true and feels great. The hardware seems fine as well, and the frets of course are nothing to complain about since it's an american made guitar! It's near perfect for those wanting a silhouette on the cheap!
