axis super sport for beginers

Nah...

If anything it might spoil you for life. As far as learning on, it might be better for a beginner to either get the hardtail or have the trem blocked.
 
I'd have been really happy if I had an SS back in the day to learn on although I probably wouldn't have appreciated just how good it was.
 
Thank you all for such positive feedback I can't waight till Friday when I get it and yes it is a hardtail.
 
MAN, I would have given up my right pinky to have had an AXIS SS when I was a beginner. I had a freakin' nylon string classical guitar! Then I moved "up" to a Lotus!

GET a MUSIC MAN! Don't even debate it. If you want to save money, then buy a SUB1. If you have the money, get the axis.
 
in my opinion, a music man is among the best, if not THE best, to learn on. i've seen a lot of people quit, who may have stuck at it if their guitar didn't outright suck
 
any opinions on the yamaha dg100-212 as an amp for my axix ss good or bad

Great amp, but real heavy...

...and your parents (presumption) might not like the amount of air you push with a 2x12", but that's part of the fun ;)

My son's learning to play on an Axis Super Sport, and he loves it... The guitar never sees its case...

Rock on

Lucky guy...my first guitar was a 3/4 scale classical guitar with an action of about 6 inches, followed by a steel-string acoustic that required a bionic arm to play barre chords.

Just jealous...have a lot of fun with your guitar:D .

To be honest, I feel that it is best to learn on a good guitar as they are better made, more playable, and you get so much more enjoyment from the sound of the instrument than a cheapo guitar - you're more likely to keep playing.
