Hi,
I send some pictures of my "Axis" (copy made by luthier).
Thanks for your help and suggestion about pickups I should use.

Take care
Louis
 
That is one fine looking guitar!

My compliments to the chef.

What kind of bridge is that? It looks pretty beefy.
 
the selector switch is a little close to the volume for me, but other than that, it looks nice.

at first, I thought it was another OLP mod. Color me embarassed. It looks NICE. Did you go for the same wood as the Axis? Basswood with a maple top?

And you HAVE to tell me what kind of case that is. I'd love one.

That's a very nice guitar... I prefer the "stubby" 3-way switch as used on the Axis and Petrucci (and even the Ibanez Petrucci sig.) when the switch is placed anywhere but the traditional "LP" position, but it's a fine looking instrument... the bridge does look quite nice, and the finish is sweet! :)
 
I agree with JD on the switch. If I do a 2 pup guard on my Silo when it comes in) I may opt for the Pet type switch. WOO!


Late!

tuners: Schaller M6LA with pearl buttons

Take care
