    Balls and the band

    Some of you may remember that I started playing in a band a few months ago...

    This is my first time playing in a band and we have really started to kick some ass over the past few weeks. I think we may try to do some gigs here in the near future.

    It has been really sweet playing my EVHs, the Al (short lived) and the Morse all these weeks, they have played great and I must say that these are the best guitars i have ever played, hands down!

    I cant wait for my new DD Al to get here, so that i can jam that as well!!!

    I'm really happy with the "band" experience, it is a hell of a lot of fun!!!
    PLAY HARD, SLEEP HARD AND GET UP AND PLAY SOME MORE!

    it sure is a blast playing my balls with my band, they are such fantastic instruments. sometimes im there on stage just thinking "how god are these guitars? and how lucky i must be to have found them".
    My name is Rob and I'm an AL-coholic!
    The MM90 AL is the most underrated axe on the planet!

    I buy my balls from the number one EBMM dealer in Australia, the all round nice guy and legendary Colin!His website is www.guitarplanet.com.au Give him a call to order your balls!!!!!

    These guitars are impressive, it's unbeleivable the tone i have between my Luke and my Axis SS pluged straigth into my Mesa Boogie MarkIV Head and Recto cabinet...
    Plus i've never seen such a high materials and building quality in another guitars than EBMM ! World Top Class Instrument !

    If you visit my MySpace webpage, the solo you'll here once you're on the page is a studio session i've done last year for a band, it's the Axis SS plugged directly into my Mesa amp and cabinet, recorded flat without any EQ modification, just a little Delay added at the mix, nothing else, the guitar sound you hear on this sample is the sound the Axis gives me with my amp...

    Antoine, great tone. Not a Mesa fan usually, but in combo with your Axis, it’s elegant, as is your solo.

    Thank you for the kind words Candid_X, i'm a huge Mesa MarkIV fan and EBMM guitars too.
    This time i play my Luke more than my Axis SS, the sound of the Luke is very fantastic, and i found the EMG to be a very good match with Mesa Boogie, plus i prefer the HSS config to the HH of the Axis SS!
