Hi!

This is DeepPurple from Munich, Germany.

I got this webpage known as a recommendation by a MusicMan Supporter on Facebook where I wrote on Steve Morse´s Blog to get tips on how to keep his signature guitar nice, clean and comfortable in play, so here I am!

As mentioned above, I am a proud owner of Steve Morse´s MusicMan Y2D signature guitar!
It took more than two years to get to money by giving drum lessons and working in the supermarket but this spring I made a dream come true and bought it in the local musicshop.
I also got it a bit cheaper because I´ve been working there as a trainee (school-projet) and a damage in finish on the top but that doesn´t really matter to me, it´s my baby! ^^

I started playing guitar like about 2 1/2 years ago so I still call my self a beginner even if my musicteacher is proud of my progress, I didn´t liked that, it was good for my ego but my strong will is based on getting better and reaching a higher level.

My self:

I am a 16 years old kid from germany whose heart is connected to classic HardRock like Deep Purple did in the 70´s but also their newer stuff and bands like Toto, Steve Morse Band, Rainbow, Led Zeppelin, Lamb of God and so on.
This year I reached the "semi finals" of germany´s school education.
As you can guess, music is the propably biggest part of my life so I got two bands. (Drummer & guitarist)
My gear is:
Ibanez 15Watt Combo + LowPrice DigiTech multi :)P)
BrianMayPedal, JimiHendrix WahWah
guitars: my dad´s 11year old Ibanez Stage Star, Jack&Danny V200, Ibanez12String Acoustic, NoNameWester + Musicman Steve Morse Y2D.


So that´s all i have to say at the moment, I hope it wasn´t too much and my bad english didn´t cause eye-cancer! ^^
Greetings!

Welcome. Congrats on your recent acquisition!!! Your title is a little deceiving. For a second there I was under the impression that Deep Purple had replaced one of their band members.:confused::eek::)

Hey welcome and congrats on getting such a fine guitar! Steve Morse is my main influence and why I am here, and I finally got a Y2D recently as well. Absolutely brilliant guitar. Take care of yours and good luck on your musical journey.

Guten Tag Deep Purple. That's about as far as my German goes, so don't worry about the quality of your English!

Welcome to the forum. We'd love to see some photographs of your Y2D. SM is an amazing player.

Hello and welcome aboard !

Your English is not so bad (you can trust a Frenchman on this topic !!!).
16 years old and already a Y2D ! Lucky boy, when I was 16, I was playing on my brother's Aria Pro II ...
Now, you have to post pics !

Thanks a lot!
I´ll load some pics up very soon so be prepared for a stunning beauty! :D

@RicMan: These words are almost the whole thing so you´re welcomed in Germany! ^^

@Bazxkr: You saw them in the 70´s!? Wow, that´s cool :)
I didn´t have the chance - that´s the bad thing in beeing born that "late"


I can´t wait to understand your jokes and stuff, especially I hope to learn some tricks and tips I can use for my Y2D.
And yeah, I´m totally proud to own that prettiness but as I said before, it took some time and I worked for it so I didn´t get it for free or as a gift.

Greetings from Germany!

PS: Maybe I´ll also "use" this community to get rid of my mistakes in english with you guys it seems to be the best chance to learn writing, because there´s so much to say! :D
