No love for the Axis Semi-hollow?

[mtrejo]

Oh Bob, I think it was the best run of them all. The necks were pretty consistently superb specimens, roasted…

Oh nvm, I owned a honey burst super sport for a while, but it wasn't a PDN. I kinda read that as "all" honeybursts were pdn, not that specific type of honey burst.

 

[DrKev]

Wasn't the PDN was called Honey Roast, not honeyburst?

 

[jzeijen]

Honey roasted, must be short for:

Classic Honeyburst, roasted maple

 

[mtrejo]

You are correct Dr. Kev. That PDN run was called Honey Roast, I assume it neatly makes reference to the roasted neck and Honey Burst finish.

The finish is Honey Burst, which was what I was referencing. I should have referred to it by the correct PDN name and not the finish.

That looks perfect. I wasn't sold on the "m hole", but I think it looks awesome with that color. The piezo and trem are nice additions as well.

Its the Rosewood fretboard that did it for me, I am not a maple lover so this has everything a Gent could wish for.........almost !!!

Glad you're enjoying it, Kev. Can you believe mine hasn't arrived yet?

That is ironic Kev, given the situation we had, yes loving the guitar thank you, has an edge that my solid Axis/Piezzo doesn't and in UK so rare, I get a few muso's asking what it is.

I have to agree with DrewH here. I find the Axis a tad too "sporty" for a semihollow version, but that is just me. Perhaps, a more "traditional" looking guitar like the Armada would have been a more obvious choice.
Also, I guess many people associate semi-hollow guitars with jazz, so if you are not a fan of the genre you might overlook these beauties for their solid version sisters

A semi-hollow Armada sounds fantastic. I've been wanting a nice hollow body, the Axis one doesn't catch my eye right unfortunately. I think the Armada or maybe the Reflex would look great. I do enjoy the vintage looking hollow guitars though. It's hard not to picture those as the "right" looking hollow body guitars.

 

[ozzyrules]

Well,
The Reflex is already a semi-hollow; sort of. I do "get" the desire for the vintage look, though. Ultimately, I love mine.
