I was bored today so i was calling around to local guitar shops to see if they had a Morse (new or used) i could try out.

This one shop in my wife's hometown told me they had a standard w/ a floyd at their other store (blueburst)...he said they had been sitting on it for like 2 years!

I was really excited, because i thought i could get a killer deal!!!

he calls back an hour later..."oh sorry it is a hardtail"

i was like..."DAMMIT!!" so close!!!

Brent, maybe you didn't get my last email, but I will route a y2d and install a 4th pickup and toggle for you. And I promise not to use an axe ;)


PS this voids the warranty

LMAO!!!! thanks for the offer! :)

When am I going to see the new amp?


Hmm let's see, moved business two weeks ago, moving house this week, working 12 - 14 hour days 6 days a week at the moment. I say you'll probably see the amp sometime in April. :o

If you need a hand with the move... I can send Fiona over? You should get her to clean the new place before you move in

Where's the shop? I'd love to have a hardtale. :D
 
Brent, I just played a Blue Morse with a floyd on Wednesday at Melhart Music in McAllen, TX. Their phone number is (956) 682-6147. I loved all of the p/u options it had. I plugged it into a cheapy Drive amp and the different p/u combos were very distinct to my ears which was pretty cool. I, myself, am in the market for a EB, but have to sell my schecter koa first. I called a place called Morgue Guitars, formerly Dr. Rockstar guitars in Corpus Christi, TX and spoke to a guy named Ben. He had nothing but awesome things to say about EB and Scott Ball. He said he's all out of EB's and that he can't keep them in stock for long, especially the JPs.
Good luck hunting.
