We are thrilled to present to you today serial number 24 of the Music Man Steve Morse BFR in a stunning “Tahitian Blue” finish—a strictly limited edition with only 69 specimens worldwide, each hand-signed by Steve Morse himself.
The “BFR” (Ball Family Reserve) designation guarantees an instrument crafted from the finest woods and materials, with meticulous attention to detail in aesthetics, playability, and tone. True to this legacy, this Steve Morse model delivers first-class performance:
- Its “Fat C Roundback” neck profile (0.830''–0.910'') paired with a satin-finished back ensures effortless playability, inviting your fingers to glide across the 22 stainless steel frets and gorgeous fingerboard.
- The striking “Upgraded Quilt Maple” top in mid-blue is a visual masterpiece, while the African mahogany body delivers rich resonance and sustain.
- Equipped with two Custom Music Man humbuckers, it produces the iconic, dynamic tones synonymous with Deep Purple—powerful, balanced, and full of bite.
Collector’s item? Stage-ready workhorse? A roaring rock machine? This mint-condition gem fulfills every role. As a final touch of rarity, Steve Morse has hand-signed the electronics compartment cover, elevating this “maritime masterpiece” to true heirloom status.
