Steve Morse`s guitar

[Pt.Morse]

Hello everyone!I want to buy a steve morse signature guitar but i dont like the bridge that it has.Can the Music Man company make a guitar for me with a bridge of my selection?Thanks

 

[roburado]

Yes. Your choices are the hardtail or the Floyd. If that's what you mean by a bridge of your selection, then you're in luck. If you want something else, then the answer is no. Those are Steve Morse's choices in bridges. So that's what comes on the guitar.

i find the morse hardtail bridge awesome. especially the new ones that lock. great tone......& very low string breakage , & very easy to adjust the height & intonation..... .
plus......during a set...... if i do break a string...i can usually have another one on before the song is over..thanks to it being a top loader...& the locking tuning keys.

What Tommy said

It really is a great bridge. Try it out if you can and see.

My Morse's have trems but they are wonderful guitars. I think they are my fav. gutiars over the Petrucci's

 

[Pt.Morse]

Thank you very much guys!

I want to ask one more thing. I visited steve morse`s website and i saw this picture of him holding a guitar(his signature model).I was wondering,what kind of colour is it? s t e v e m o r s e . c o m (i am talking about the picture that says 'site updates' under it)

That's the new version of the Steve Morse model - it's called Y2D, and I think it came out in 2005. Some of the differences are that the new one doesn't have the angled single coil and features a maple top. It comes in Purple Sunburst (the one on the 'site updates' picture), De-purple sunburst and tobacco sunburst finishes.

I'm a bit partial to the y2d myself....

 

[robelinda2]

cant fault the Morse hardtail bridge one bit.

 

[Pt.Morse]

But its too expensive...Can`t i just order a normal steve morse guitar and ask them to change the colour in Purple Sunburst?

 

[beej]

Nope. Those special colours (Purple Sunset, De-Purple Burst) are limited to the Y2D in the same way that Luke Blue is limited to the Luke, Mystic Dream is limited to the Petrucci, etc. Also, the Y2D has a maple top so there's more figuring to show from those new colours.

Maybe you can find one second-hand?

Nope. Those colours are exclusive to the Y2D model.

Just find a used one, the price difference between a used Y2D and a new Morse isn't that great.

 

[Pt.Morse]

Thanks again guys! But i think i will just buy the standard steve morse model with a fixed bridge.What do u think?

 

[beej]

I think that's a great choice. The Morse is such an incredible guitar and I love the look of Morse Blueburst! Really a great colour. (Though there are lots of other great options.)

 

[Pt.Morse]
