Just a tester for this new guitar which is fuckin' awesome. You can feel and hear the quality of the guitar...sorry 'bout my all ower the place' geetar playing but trying to get used to the VERY small scale. Once I'm there it will flow. :thumb:

Looks and sounds killer CHris. Nice score!

Lovely tone mate. You can tell you ain't comfortable with it yet, but still, some amazing sounds coming out of there. Seems like a beautiful buy !

:thumb:

man I love that guitar, i love the tone you get out of that Chris...that guitar is awesome, wicked playing over that backer...

man i want that guitar:woot:

Thanks for posting that Chris, obviously gorgeous and cool sounding guitar. Very interesting into to it, thanks. Look forward to hearing more from that one.

You have know idea as a huge Morse fan how good it is too see that guitar in action :D , next order i put in to Thomann i might get Steves pickups too now lol.
Steves sound is so special, the harmonics you mention in the vid are trademark Morse, and i can see you're going to have some fun with that guitar, i'd put money on it becoming your new number 1 too :)
The country side of Steve is where the single coils come into play, on Steves old Musicman it has 4 pickups, the same three as on your Y2D, then one more single coil between the neck in middle as seen here below:

And involves an extremely cool switching system, one of the coils can be switched in adding to the current pickup selected, or inplace of all currently selected, im not up to date on the Y2D arrangement, but if Steve is using it, i bet it has some awesome sounds in it, and i can here alot of them in you vid too :)
As you can tell im excited lol, you might of even convinced me to buy one of these in the future over a JS1000 (i'd get a trem version though to meet in the middle), im really impressed with how it sounds, and i'll definately look forward to hearing you play an entire song with it.
Again big congrats mate :thumb:

Thats what I thought, This guitar is screamin for a trem! Don't you miss it on this one Chris?

Well I've got three with locking trems and two also have D-Tuna's but I fancied a hardtail version because of the tone...more wood (less cutaway) and so far I haven't missed it. To be honest I'm really getting into the vintage trem on the Levinson Blade for Beck type slurs and I'm not using a trem agressively as much these days. :thumb:

Used it all day at school today and it just SINGS! :rock:

I really like it Chris ,especially the country tones,a very versatile guitar indeed!!

Very nice demo Chris, a lot more entertaining than watching this bloody anglo Italian England Team !...LOL. The Y2k guitar has such a lovely clear ringing tone, very defined even with the distortion. I'm a big fan of the MM Silouhette Specials, played one at an exhibition and loved them but unfortunately about half a grand more than I was allowed to pay (although I've seen them now for the same price as my Ibanez!). Anyways, great to see you in action again and great demo of the new axe mate.

"Mistakes by mince meat fingers ..." :lol: classic!!

Looks and sounds the biz Chris.

With that biting, but still ballsy out-of-phase tone, I think it's finally time for that "End Of The World" cover, don't you?

:thumb:

(I'd even sing it for yer ... if you dared!)

Chris....thats a beautifull axe and she sounds awesome...is that the one you snagged off ebay???...also m8 what speakers or amp you playing through in there sounds really loud...as for noodling to that backer you make it look so friggin easy...Good stuff Chris :rock:

Yeah mate, this is off eBay in the USA. The speakers are Tannoy Reveals (passive) thru the PODxt and the speakers go into a TEAC (Now Tascam!) power amp I found in the shed in a box a few years ago...it's a hi-fi amp but old and crystal clear.

'End Of The World' John? I could never do the picking justice on that one...he's a fast fucjer in his early years...hell, he's a fast fucjer now an all!

Justin, I really like the look of the Silhouette too. I had my eye on one on eBay from Reading last week but chickened out. It went for about £350!!

Cheers Lippy. :thumb:

Sounds excellent very rich in tone ,and the colour is quality.

Looks and sounds a real beauty mate , also a Steve Morse fan here and can definetly hear his sound within that guitar even through the podxt , those harmonics sound beautiful aswell , always wondered what one of these sounded like , don't have to wonder anymore , sounds lovely :D

Well....it must be nice to be able to buy a new axe every couple of weeks!!!!:stick: :lol:

Looks and sounds sweet, bro!!!!! one thing that I've always missed about the modellers is the lack of sustain(which you new guitar takes care of) and not being able to get harmonic feedback!!! Can the new axe cover that as well???

When you get bored with it can I have it? :lol: Congrats Chris, she looks and sounds a stunner!

It's ugly, and being colour blind means the colour does nowt for me.
But it does sound a rather naughty :thumb:

Yeah, what I like is that if you move around the studio and have the volume whacked up, it gives all manner of different frequencies and not in all the obvious places either. The 'Satriani C' (beginning of 'Flying In A Blue Dream') is possible and the 9th fret on the G is another one that leaps out. :thumb:

I know you like a more traditional look Pete but the Musicman shape and 4 - 2 headstock config are now becoming classics...and it's how it plays and sounds at the end of the day matey. :thumb:

Cheers Steve...I'll pass her on! :thumb:
