Luke with birdeyes top

[Tim O'Sullivan]

And Axis guitar without the Floyd Rose..... hang on, I already have some of them!

 

[TimSz]

Arrrrrrgh.

Tim, you summbitch!

I was just going to mention that exactly. Here goes anyways:

6.) An Axis left handed. They've made quality lefty FR tailpieces for a few years. (just as an example, the Phil Collen signature guitar that can be made lefty through a certain custom shop that I will never willingly support...) I think it'd be kind of neat to get one.

7.) An Axis Hardtail. This just makes sense to me. The Axis Super Sport is great with its options, but it'd be lovely to get an Axis Hardtail with the cool 3-way switch and only a humbucker option. I think this is the most logical option as far as the ones I've listed. AND it could be made left handed quite easily.

Spud, why did you start this thread? It's just making me want an Axis hardtail. Screw the left handed AL. hahahaha.

 

[Sub1 Zero]

Maybe Ed Roman will make one for you Jimmy

[Tim O'Sullivan]

Maybe Ed Roman will make one for you Jimmy

I was in there a few weeks ago - he is closing down!

 

[TimSz]

Careful, Dane. Careful!

Hahahahahaha.

Careful though. Let's not go abusing this thread by turning it into another bash thread. Ed Roman did his thing, as did every other person that has warranted attack threads. That's not the point here.

 

[Sweat]

What MOD why do we want to screw up the worlds most perfect guitars, if anything birdseye a plenty but we all know thats is not possible in todays world.
OH and I will had since I am a natural lefty who plays righty more models for those who dont.

 

[Bud]

I'll second the pickguard free silo

 

[fogman]

a toggle switch for the piezo on the non-JP guitars.

You have one on the Axis Piezo

I thought so but wasn't sure

And on the Luke too. I thought only the AL lacked it, but I just saw the Silo doesn't have it too.

I didn't know about the Luke!

OK, so a switch on the ALs and Silos then!

 

[Spudmurphy]

Hahahahahaha.

Agreed +1
-Will you become a mod on my thread

 

[Spudmurphy]

Spud, why did you start this thread? It's just making me want an Axis hardtail. Screw the left handed AL. hahahaha.

Ha ! - I was fed up by the attitude of a person who in another thread started flaming EB and some of my knucklehead friends.
I felt like opening some dialogue on our beloved instruments - who knows someone may come up with an idea that EB likes, but I do realise that EB already has loads of options!

It gives you a vent to air your left - ism too!!
Power to the lefties lets have a "LALOC" - here's member #1

 

[pjc812]

X2N and Air Norton 7 pup combination in a JP7. The X2N imo flattens the D-sonic. Sorry...

That's if I were only allowed one mod. Other than that, I'd also put in medium jumbo stainless fretts in both JP's

 

[sarahk]

Hey Sarahk Im so happy to have another 20th lover here and it is a bonus that we get more ladies.....Not being sexist just love the diversity and Im sure beth and tiffles and azzy etal love the backup!

the 20th is just so perfect (and my women friends, musician and otherwise, are equally wowed. EBMM may not market "girl guitars" (thank goodness; that seems to mean taking away options or adding Hello Kitty) but the silo and axis certainly could be marketed that way. They are totally girl ergonomic

 

[Spudmurphy]

Hey BP - I recon sarahk needs a "personal fitting" !!

 

[lumberjack]

I'd like to see what an archtop Axis and ASS would look like.

H/H Axis Super Sport with ash body.

Wait a minute ... just bring back the original Axis Sport!

 

[TonyEVH5150]

All I can think of is putting a coil tap on the Axis. I could do this myself if I had the guts. I'm horrible at wiring.

Oh yeah, and archtop hardtail Axis.

 

[uvacom]

Semi-hollow ASS MM90 would be great.

OR ASS w/ arm contour (still w/ binding!).

OR shorter-scale (24" or 24.75") ASS or AL.

On a less (yet somehow more) serious note, an ASS and AL with African Mahogany body, premium finish, and special inlays.
