So I bit the bullet and ordered an Axis from Guitar Center. To make a long story short, they sent the wrong color, I re-ordered, got a second Axis in the correct color. My first weekend having the correct Axis (I didn't use the first Axis - didn't want something to get messed up if/when I ship it back), I was playing it at home, plays GREAT. But then I started noticing how NOISY the guitar is when not playing. Yes I'm not a dummy...I checked for grounds on the guitar, and inside the wiring cavity and trem cavity. Can't get rid of the buzz. Tried my Framus Diablo Custom with a Duncan in the bridge. Quiet as can be. Try both Axis guitars. Both buzz really bad. I've called Ernie Ball and DiMarzio both about the pickups, and of course, they want to say they are fine. I just want to know if anyone else has noticed this in their Axis before I have to spend a couple hundred dollars replacing pickups on a $2,000 guitar. Gatta admit...I'm a little frustrated about that fact.
