Thanks for this, jon. I've always been curious on the factory heights of the pickups.
Question for Jon- Morse Pickup Heights?

Hey Tommy-
I'm just putting 2 and 2 together here. You know Steve, right? (Thus your photo of his guitar and knowledge of his #1.)
Did you happen to sell a Morse to DS Music last year? (Oringinally had the bridge HB toggle wired as a coil split.) I picked it up last year (love it!) and am thinking it was one of yours.
- Beej.

Jeez, sorry Keith! I bought one of Tommy's old Morses (via a dealer, via ebay ...) which had passed through a few hands and called him to chat about it. Turns out Tommy has some good stories about Steve. I'll let him tell 'em if he's interested, but suffice it to say that Tommy's got some great repair skills.

> All are measured from the top of the pickup to the bottom of the string.
Jon- sorry to keep beating the dead horse here, but you mean from the pickup cover and not the pole pieces, right? Also, are these measurements the same for treble & bass heights?
Thanks again.

Jon ... really cool info.
BTW ... I talked to Steve and he said you should just ship his next few SM Sig's to my address ... since he'll be rooming with me for a while. Yeah! That's the ticket!!

This is cool, thanks PSPurpleSport said:Speakin' of SM, I was casually/randomly browsing on his site last nite and came across the info about the Livin' Loud project for the first time (I'm not a hardcore Morse fan like Kei...er....Harold, just an occasional listener who appreciates what he does).
OMG....for the unfamiliar: man, whatta jawdropper this is - it's basically Morse playin' Rhoads-era Ozzy tunes with the Ozz-man's rhythm section from that lineup!
The thought of such a combo woulda NEVER crossed my mind in a kajillion years. Plus, SM's playing was absolutely RIPPIN'. I dunno how this guy manages to keep a stable family life with all these projects and tours he juggles every year, much less simply being such a musical chameleon.
