I have a lovely Blue Dawn Axis Sport with a maple fretboard and natural headstock. The thing is, I prefer the feel of rosewood fretboards...

So
I'm tossing out the idea of trading the maple fretboard neck off my Axis Sport (straight-up trade, plus a D.M.C. goodybag) for a neck with a rosewood fretboard that fits an Axis Sport.

The neck I have is in excellent condition, with no fretwear, chips, gouges, etc.

Anyone interested? :D

Unfortunately the Axis neck didn't jive with me, but man that thing is beautiful!!!:cool:
 
He's got a good point pete. Buy it swap the necks and sell the ASS/Sport.

Better Yet!!!!
Let Ed Roman tell you how the OLPs are better or the same as the EBMMs!!!!!
 
Pete - I would be interested in swapping. I have a '96 AS with the rosewood board in primo shape (and it's been oiled and waxed regularly). Let me know if you're still interested.

I finally did the swap with some help from beej! Thanks bud!

I'm just more of a rosewood guy; mostly because of feel, and partially because of looks. The guitar plays like a dream, and feels stellar. I can't wait to plug in at practice tomorrow and have a go. As far as looks go, right now I'm digging it, kind of like my own "old-school" LE with the black headstock.
 
Congrats Pete, for that o' skool LE look!

Yup - Blue Dawn sure looks cool with a rosewood board, a reason that sent me hunting down for a Blue Dawn Silo Spec!!;)
 
Very nice Pete, like the look alot, love the blue dawn and that head stock looks cool, man I was still screwing around with other brands when that first came up, yep Beej is the man when it comes to mod help:D:cool:
 
Pete man it looks awesome!!! Glad you were able to find a neck man!!!

That's bad ass, Pete. Curious if the Sport sounds warmer with the rosewood.
