I have a question about the change from nickel to stainless steel frets some years back. Since the Axis was based on the EVH Signature guitar with minor changes and I believe uses the same pickups as the original, I'm wondering how that has affected the tone on the Axis since stainless steel frets tend to be a tad 'brighter' or more trebly than nickel frets. I know the pickups are proprietary to the Axis/EVH in that they were EQ'd to the specific wood, neck wood, etc of the guitar at the time. I was curious as to how the change in the frets affects the sound since there is an audible/sonic difference. I'm sure someone here has both an EVH Signature & and Axis for comparison.
I never did pull the trigger on an EBMM, but I'm looking to do that within the next 3 months going with an Axis (hopefully a Macha green one).
