Poll: JP body with Axis Neck

[tommydude]

Wonder if anyone would purchase this type of guitar if it were available.

I bring it up since I prefer the Axis neck.

**If this has been brought up before, I must have missed it!

EBMM does not have a custom shop - they ARE a custom shop, period.

Axis with Petrucci neck would be better.

Be careful...you will offend the establishment!
This is a taboo subject.
bordering profanation...
How dare you openly voice personal preferences?

I'm sure some people would prefer it. As I'm sure some people prefer green guitars. Just not enough of them to warrant actually building them for a profit.

whats wrong with Green guitars beej???

Kind of a joke ... BP has said they never sell. The greens always get discontinued due to lackluster sales.

I know it was a joke Just looking at my Green Axis (s) as I am reading this, haha... Coolest color ever on the Axis/EVH... great resale value on the Green EVH as well

Hah, of course (should have looked at your sig). Very nice.

 

[Colin]

the best way to get an Axis on to a JP body is to ask John Petrucci. It's his sig model.

I think most knuckleheads like green guitars, which just goes to prove how most people who post on these forums are not in anyway representative of of most EBMM customers. Heck, I've probably handled close to a thousand guitars over the last six months and I cannot specifically remember one that was green. And I LOVE green guitars. That's something I would have remembered.

But hey, the greatest thing about dreams and fantasies is that they're our own, whenever we want, in the comfort of our own heads.

So enjoy your JP body with the axis neck...

...in my head it's transparent pink!

think we can get JP's number??? maybe someone should PM BP and ask???

(seriously, don't do it... its a joke)

I posted a thread last year about the possibility of a Luke body and electronics with an Axis neck as a custom order and that thread didn't work out to well. The JP/Axis scale length difference (amongst other factors) will always be an issue.

Yet they have made multiple runs of Dargies and they seem to be super successful...

as a general rule, green isn't a great seller. Special runs like the Dargie will sell cause they are limited to a 30 day window... My understanding is that the Green AXIS was the same way, a small ordering window back in 2000. I am thinking BP is talking about "green guitars" in general across the industry as something that isn't a great seller. How many green guitars do you see on the wall at GC? I've never seen a green LP... PRS is about the only company I have seen offer Green as "normal stock". I know other companies will do it, but for a company like EBMM green prob isn't selling enough to make it worth it to offer it as a standard color... although Mystic Dream has seemed to do very well for itself and the mint green HHAL is sweet!

I guess in the end green guitars are cool, but few people buy them... I've had 3 green balls and am considering purchasing a 4th (HHAL or a DDII Silo Spec at GC) so BP would prob consider me an exception to the rule... would be interested to see how many forumites have had as many Green Balls as I have...

 

[djlynch]

It would be a great guitar. Would it sell well? EB probably knows the answer to that. Just enjoy the great products EB has. This poll is dumb
