    Cool Axis SS

    I am looking for advice or information on Axis SS.
    As you can see I am a newbie and just purchased my first EBMM a Luke which I love! I live in Dalls and have seen and tested a Luke (own it) a JP, an AL and the Steve Morse, but I can not find an Axis anywhere in the area to try. I am now sold on EBMM guitars and would like to replace my others with EBMM guitar that can get the same tones. So I am looking for advice, first does anyone know where to test drive an Axis in Dallas Texas. Second which EBMM will give me the ( insert bad word here) Gibson Les Paul Tone and bite. The Luke covers my needs for many tones but not all. I look forward to any information.

    I used to be a G*bs*n player, but I have since collected a few Axes and the Les Paul's don't leave their cases now...The Axes cover the sonic ground that I had used my Les Pauls for in the past. While I don't have a Sport or Super Sport, I have the Floyd Rose equipped Axis variety, and I say grab an Axis - you won't regret it!

    The Guitar Center along the tollway used to stock EB's. You might want to give them a try. That's where I bought my Green EVH for $1325 new.

    If they don't have any, call EB customer service and they could probably tell you where specific ones are.

    Thanks RAD that GC store has moved locations and is now on LBJ, I have checked stock at all GC stores in the metroplex and there are none in stock! But I will check with customer service to see if any have been ordered. Did not think of that option. Or maybe the Dallas Guitar show in April will have one at the EBmm booth. As always thank you for the info.

    The Axis certainly has the Les Paul type vibe, though its a little brighter than the Les Paul that I used to own.
