Custom Steve Morse for Joe Bonamassa?

**Marcus2** · 03-09-2011, 07:57 AM

I was looking at some concert photos over at Joe's website and saw this one:

If you look closely, it seems as though it has a reverse headstock.

Any more info from the good folks at MM?

BTW, I am seeing Joe in Green Bay this Friday. Cannot wait!

Whoa ... good eye! And with covered pickups (is there a single?). That is unusual.

Yes its called the Darklord Morse! Made for Joe B. It features a huge round clubby neck since he likes the fat LP type profile.
I have a pic somewhere showing lots of detail....I'll try and find...

I want a Darklord !

With a regular headstock and a roasted neck

When they announced the pdn true gold Luke I told myself I'd b all over a blackburst, clear pickguard morse with a rosewood or roasted neck. That pic is exactly why.

Gorgeous! Maybe one day

Really cool Derek. Yeah, would love to see pics if you can dig 'em up. What pickups?

That is awesome! I too hope the blackburst chambered Morse becomes available someday! I posted before but the thread disappeared for some reason. Cant wait to see some upclose shots of that one. The reverse headstock is pretty interesting and I'm curious about the pickups myself.

I would love a '50s LP-style neck profile. This is my only issue with my beloved rosewood Axis, my left hand can cramps up. I'm not one to post custom options/wishes here, but this would be a dream come true for me.

Roub I think it's time to revive the thread. I'm sure there would b plenty of interest, plus with the pdn who knows. I'll tell u this much pete would get a call the moment they would announce it. That morse would kill

The cream binding on the blackburst flame is GLORIOUS! Premier Dealer Network special?

**redburst21** · 03-09-2011, 09:33 AM

I think were onto something here lol.

**guitfiddle** · 03-09-2011, 10:43 AM

Wow. That is really sweet. I'm betting it's the Axis pickups.

**LilSteve** · 03-09-2011, 11:02 AM

I'd be up for one...I smell PDN candidate
