man i wish that thing had two humbuckers and i had some money. i never fails to amaze me seeing a used EBMM ending at a price lower than a used ibanez RG

 

[Estin]

hey the neck has like "0" birdseye in it. looks like a regular maple neck....whats up with that? i thought EB only used birdseye necks.

 

[GWDavis28]

Estin,

I don't know that much about the necks, but that's the impression that I was under too.

How can you tell, being a wood novice??

This is the place that I got my Axis Sport from 2 weeks ago.

dam'n...I would trade it for my Axis in a heartbeat, I love p-90's, mine has HSS....and a scratchplate

AAAAAhhhh 700 dollar, at that price I would swim in guitars!!!
That is only 630 euro's.......

 

[threeminutesboy]

I confirm MM90 are so good open me new musical horizons !

I love EB guitars

 

[marc_odijk]

How much do they go for in France?
Over here in the netherlands they are around 2000 euro's new.
For our American friends...this is over 2200 dollars!

 

[GWDavis28]

marc_odijk, call the place up and make them an offer.

They were really cool and I have my guitar in like 2 days. Granted I'm only 2 states away, but you never know.

 

[threeminutesboy]

Mark,

price list for EB Guitar is roughtly 2600 Euros. (Axis model) Luke is around 2500 Euros.

I think street price is around 2200 euros you can get them Second and between 1500 and 2000 Euros

You understand why European are buying from Ebay !

To give an another idea, a Highway strat (american made) can be found in France for 800 Euros. And the mexican Standard is around 500 Euros

 

[marc_odijk]

That's even more expensive than the Netherlands....dam'n.

Highwaystrats are 650-700 euro's here.
I've never bought through E-bay in my life, I don't know, if something goes wrong, there would be 6000 kilomters of ocean between me and the person I would want to kill...

 

[threeminutesboy]

I have already bought 2 Axis (1 Axis and 1 Axis SS) and one ovation from Ebay without any problem, but I have to admit it's a bit risky.

Most of musician are really cool people and do not want to cheat you.

But who knows it may happen next time

 

[GWDavis28]

marc_odijk,

threeminutesboy's right, most people on ebay are pretty cool. With ebay you have to read their feedback's and determine if you want to deal with them or not. If there are to many negative or neutral responses, don't bother.

This place is a company and they treated me really well. I even got an email a few days after I got my guitar to see if they could do anything else for me.

hey europeans!!!
My friend here in milan has a guitar shop and i bought from him a luke for 1780 euros(actually i paid a little less...he's my friend!!!)
Axis are a little more expensive but not so much as in France or Holland ....if you want some EBMM let me know!!!!

Ciao
Milky
Milano

 

[threeminutesboy]

Hi Milki !

1740 Euros is a kind of good deal but still expensive consirering the price you can get on EBay.

I have seen some Like sold for 900 dollars which is roughtly 800 Euros.

Add 100 euros for transportation and 150 for tax you have a near mint condition EB for 1050 Euros this is a killin' Deal



Anyway please kindly provide the address in milano as I am sometimes going their on business trip. A good address is alway welcome !

 

[milky]

i know threeminutesboy that ebay is the cheapest place where to find guitars but i 've never bought a guitar without have played it...
and i will never buy a guitar without having tried it

a pedal and an amp are different they are machines but guitars are live

Ciao
Milky

Italy : 1
France : 0



But I can confirm that I have always been pleased with My Ebay investment ! and EBMM are so so cool guitar that there is almost no risk !

 

[GWDavis28]

I'd have to agree. I bought both of mine online and they are soooo sweet!!

EB/MM make a top quality instrument that if it's new there really doesn't seem to be any risk (in my mind).

My $.02 worth. Take it or leave it.
