Yeah, that's my biggest question: do I want a Floyd on the guitar. Yes, it's decked, but there's still the fun time when changing strings.Originally Posted by GoKart Mozart

I don't think I'm going to be satisfied until I get an Axis. I wonder if I can track down an Axis Sport in a nice color. Most of those that I see though have MM90s or SSH pickups.

ASS is a good compromise unless you have the Floyd itch, same as you i have seen the Sport with MM90s and SSH mainly.

Hahahahahaha, thanx for the accolades, I post there to keep from buying. If I can help someone score a good deal, then it's all worth it.

Well, I'll definitely keep an eye out. There are a few Axis SS guitars on Reverb, but most are without trems, and the prices seem to be kinda nuts on some of them, even for ones with a Metallic finish. Right now used prices on Axis guitars seem to have gone nuts due to the pandemic, and of course the EVH connection.

I ordered some EVH bits in November, not due until April. It has gone crazy on his stuff.

Wow, I'm feeling lucky now. Guitar Center had an Axis BFR in Steel Blue (Oct. '18 release) on clearance. I picked it up on Sunday, it's supposed to arrive tomorrow. Got a crazy good deal on it, too - it was a floor model that someone had returned, apparently.
This will be my first EBMM guitar - only other MM that I have is a SBMM Axis in White. Love the way it feels, and the pickups sound great (to me at least), considering it was $350.
Nice congrats, that's a great BFR run. Can't wait to see it, but it doesn't exist without pictures and a NGD post.

This was a fun read! I went down a bit of a VH rabbit hole after he died, but this was an angle I didn’t get elsewhere.
