This has to be the most figured Axis i have ever seen. I cant justify having 3 Axis guitars. I just had to share it. I have to keep reminding myself im buying a Luke in CPB with piezo I just love the Axis model so much!

Who needs justification? If you can afford it, buy it. If you can't, wait until you can.

DO NOT RESIST .....I REPEAT DO NOT RESIST....GIVE IN TO TEMPTATION.

What do you mean you can't justify having 3 Axis'. That guitar looks amazing. Larry if you got that, you'd have 3 hot lookin' Axis'.

And all I've got to say about us forumites is great minds think alike. If I'm not mistaken, that's one of the axes from Wild West guitars. I check out there website on a regular basis to lust over the EBMM's they have. The ones that they have in stock, and the ones they have in their SOLD section are amazing.

If you don't get that you're going to kick yourself. If you don't get that, I'll kick ya:D It's only money, right?:p

Good luck

I would pick it up if I had the $$

on a side note: WW guitars has a Fender Custom Shop, Mary Kay, Limited Release, MSRP $7,400.00 WW: $5,180.00

WTF ? a friken $5,180.00 Fender re-issue ? That doesn't even include taxes.

A guitar with some gold plating and given the " Closet Classic treatment " (a few small dings, a mildly checked finish, lightly oxidized hardware and aged plastic
parts) ? Are the parts THAT good and it took Fender 120 man hours to make it ?

Mary Kay was (is) a great guitarist, however she played a D'Angelico until the New Mary Kay Trio where she played a tele.

So I ask somone who would buy this, "What really makes it worth so much money when MK never even played a Strat ?"

I could justify spending big $$$ on a strat if it had some significance like Buddy Holly's strat, but c'mon a friken closet treatment re-issue ?

It's just a FENDER !

Am I missing something?


sorry just had to get it off my chest

Do not resist! I repeat: Do not resist!!

You can always sell futile things to get money! For example: your car, your house, your pets, your wife... :D Or you could just stop paying taxes...

It's not an upgrade top. I just called and had wild west check the backplate and it does not say "Custom Made" on it. While I had them on the phone I went ahead and bought it. I hope that helps you to not buy it.

All of this is a lie

the picture in the one i posted is not the one on sale.
it is miss linked
the one pictured in my post and when you click on the orange axis is shown under the sold guitars
check the website
http://www.wildwestguitars.com/musicmansold.htm
the 4th row 6th down
the one for sale is actually this one
http://www.wildwestguitars.com/ernieball/axis/axis_g31848.jpg
when you look at the picture when view all the Axis you can see the differences. All i did was hit view image and
the serial numbe was different

just wanted to inform NorM so he isnt let down when it shows up it is still a hot Axe tho
