    Sparkle

    Just got this from Mr. UPS today and I must say very sparkly, Axis Sport in Black Sparkle.

    This thing is mint not a scratch or ding anywhere, one hell of a deal on this one, really was not in the market to buy anything but glad I did not pass it up, especially at the price.

    Had to take the DiMarzio strap lock off and put on the original strap buttons, change the strings since the high E broke in transit, but I would have done that anyways a little fretboard conditioning and WOW, cool little guitar, just what the elbow ordered.

    My pics suck, found this one hard to photograph and made me realize I really need a new camera Anyways here are the crappy pics.

    Stupendous!

    That rosewood board is nice. I love the feel of rosewood, it gives just enough under your fingers.

    I love that colour. It's such a shame it's not available any more. Got to be good reasons why not - maybe not a big seller.
