Steve Morse guitar

[Fontanz]

I'd like to show the new member of my guitar family. It's not a Music Man but I do think it should feel well between my two MMSM models because they might look at her like her mother...!?

I'm glad the Frankentele is an instrument with good playability. The neck has a very nice profile and it's thinner than I would have expected. Only the frets feel a bit two low and thin when you're used to the MM frets.

All in all it's fun to play the Fender Frankenstein and, because of the contrast, it brings to my mind again how great the Music Man guitars really are.

hehe nice please tell us the story behind this one. Did you assemble it yourself or how did you get it?

Sweat, probably because it's Morse related:

Really what MM content is this? Mods are on me for helping a fellow fourm member but frankentele is OK? Explain this one Lucy?

#1. It's Morse related.

#2. He's got two SMs in the photo.

#3. O/T discussions are allowed. He's not showing off a competing brand.

#4. Please leave modding to the mods.

What ever

 

[beej]

What ever

?

Ok, how about this-

#5. Ratting out somebody else b/c you're mad about being called out for breaking the 25 post rule for selling your buddy's guitar then being pissy at me doesn't really show your best side.

Please let it go.

Not at you, your a good dude, at others but again what ever.

That's actually really cool! I would like to know the story behind that as well...how did you obtain that or is that a copy you made?

And yea, this is all about Steve Morse who made that guitar that IMO was a game changer in those days and led to what I believe was the first sig EBMM model. I dont know why people have to bug out over random things?

 

[beej]

Keith, no more of this please. This is somebody else's thread and it's quite welcome here.

Back to the thread ...

 

[KevTN]

Please tell us the story! That is cool..

Actually Its Sunday....I just saw this and we really have to take it to another forum...no eb content. But why are you modding again? Why are you deciding what rules are good and bad? Wy are you venting in public? I don't get it. Haven't all at my company including myself always treated you with respect?

...Keith...What did any of us do to you? You posted a guitar for a third party that didn't have enough posts to
sell it himself. The 25 post rule is there because the MEMBERS made it. we are enforcing it because the members asked us to. Also when it goes bad the buyer or seller looks to us.

This is no good deed goes unpunished. We don;'t charge for this service...its free....we don't make any money off of it....the mods are volunteers...why did you have to go nuke on them and me? I dont get it. There are a lot of things to get worked up over....I'm sorry that you think this is one of them.

can't we all be friends and talk about guitars? Music Man guitars?

 

[Big Poppa]

and with that...this is done.
