There are so many words I want to say but know I can’t say on the forum!

But it goes something like this: “holy mother of pearl, that is a *&$#ing ludicrous wonder of all that is guitar artistry!!!” Except that what actually came out of my mouth was only 3 of those words. :eek:

Congrats, Tollie - she’s a beaut! :cool:

I got one too! #45 and its the nicest guitar I think I have ever owned. So much so that I don't want to play anything else. Beyond its beauty it plays like a dream. There is a significant difference between a BFR and a regular MM. My Axis is a killer guitar and I have loved it the most up until now; this BFR just plays and feels sooooo much better though and those SS frets and African Mahogany...

Grats to you man your going to love this axe!

I thought my collection was complete and have had GAS for a while, but that BFR Buckeye Burl Axis has caused some serious pangs. Really want.

Thanks, are you pinching harmonics with the greatest of ease? Mine sounds very "alive". I stayed up way past my bedtime the first night I brought it home.

Thank you Pete; he stayed at the store past his usual quitting time to greet me. Thanks for the awesome Ernie Ball leather strap and other goodies, too. That strap is very nice!

I have always been big on bends and harmonics and its like doing them in my sleep with this guitar. I can't say enough good things about it honestly. I have not been this stoked in my playing in many, many years. It is hands down the nicest, easiest, fastest, guitar I have ever played/owned.

I dare say its Angelic most times; the sustain, the vibrancy of the notes. Definitely "alive" as you stated. I think I am in love with my guitar! Will post wife aggro pics next :)
