25th Aniversary Steve Morse Guitar?

**Brand X** · 03-04-2010, 04:49 AM

How about a limited run of 25 / 250 / 2500 of his #1 relic'd and including the lathe'd heel! ;o)

Steve's playing a trans black chambered Y2D with Floyd right now (there are some pics here, and floating around). On his SMB tour his backup guitar (Y2D) had a chambered body as well. So he's had a few different versions to play with. No doubt there's some great stuff we don't know about as well.

Cool. Thanks, Beej. I guess I haven't kept up with the latest. So, what's the future look like for that other Reflex style guitar we saw some month ago with the standard SM bridge? What that just a prototype that won't see production?

This one?

That's the one

That is so cool! I hope that color will be available. I am not normally a fan of that color but it always looks so nice on EBMM guitars especially the Morse!

Here’s a real beaut!

As Colin mentioned, Steve said it will be coming out at some point in the future but he wants to make sure the output is properly balanced.

Ya know, if Steve is having some issues with balancing the output on the prototypes, I would gladly take a few from him for some bench testing

You do know that's a photoshop of my Purple Sunset that I did back when the y2ds first came out and the 2006 black/gold LE models were starting to ship, right?

right?!?!?

I would like to think that photograph inspired Steve's prototype, but that's just me hoping.

Well, for 25th anniversary, it's OK to do some chambering or different colors. But what is supposably better IMO, is that Steve design a totally new pickups with dimarzio so it can match different wood types. Eg., basswood, mahogany, ...
Then there will be time for all sorts of add-ons.
