This guitar has got my attention again.
I'm wondering how difficult it is to use, meaning pickups and switches???

When I briefly had a chance to play one unplugged I will say that it wasn't my favourite neck out of the EBMM family. I prefer the Silo, however maybe if I play it more I would come to like the neck more.
This guitar without a doubt has a tonne of tonal options. But is it worthy to not have a piezo or a regular vintage style trem? (I'm not a Floyd guy!)

Any feedback would be appreciated! :)
 
Hi Foggy,

I love mine. The switching is very intuitive once you get used to it. I've even mucked with mine and added in a few more switches ;)

Personal preference on the Piezo and trem- the Morse is so tonally versitile, and I don't miss a trem on mine. (I don't have a piezo on any guitar so can't comment on that.)

In all, it is one sweet guitar. Covers a ton of ground. Looks great and I like the neck. And Tommy swears that the Y2D has the perfect neck. :D

I have an old 6-bolter and will have the Y2D next month. If you're near T.O. at all you are more than welcome to swing by my pad and try it out anytime.

NorM,

You have the assorted collection!
Like me, you're a maple fretboard guy.
So give me some info when comparing the Morse to the Silos!!! Pros and Cons.
I can count on you for some blunt honesty! ;) :p
 
Oh man Foggy are you going to buy something soon?? Man what exactly are you looking for??

I'm just busting yah!!!

I'm used to my morse. Got it about 10 days.

I put .09 on it, cuz I feel the neck harder to play than my others guitars that I'm used.

even wiht low action , but could't lower the action the desired amout.

Strings buzz are comming with hiper low action. But now sustain for days, and sound like a 180+ hp bike with carbon exhaust.
 
I have own a Morse for awhile now, and I gotta tell ya it's very useable in most situations. I'm looking forward to my Y2D.
