Hi everyone.......I just discovered this forum after purchasing an Axis hardtail with MM90's a week ago (total impulse buy, but for $599 brand new I couldn't resist!)....great guitar, great forum! My guitar instructor has been an endorsee of Ernie Ball, and after picking one up I see why he always raves about them. Excellent quality, great playability, and a killer tone. I couldn't be happier!

MattC,

Welcome, you have an pictures of your Axis??

Enjoy.

I'm working on some pics....I'm home sick today, so I've got nothing better to do!

Here 'tis.......black sparkle. Not wild about the color/ finish, but beggars can't be choosers.....

MattC is that a black sparkle??? I lightened the picture up a bit and that's the way that it looks to me.

You gotta love the sparkle colors huh they are so awesome!!!!!

Was this new, or used??

 

[MattC]

Yep...it's black sparkle. I didn't really like it at first, but it's growing on me....it's got a funky retro vibe that I'm startin' to dig. It doesn't photograph very well...the flash really brings out the sparkle which tends to overpower everything else. It's much more subdued in person.

I bought it brand new...it was on a manager's special. They were blowing out some older inventory...I saw it, played it, loved how it sounded, so I snagged it.

Matt if you were sitting next to me I'd kill you and then steal your guitar......LOL! How come I never get deals like that?????

Oh by the way Matt as a new member you are required to lend out your EBMM guitar to all members starting with me of course for at least several months. We just started this rule.....

Riiiight......

Hey man, I agree with the others, that is a hot looking guitar. I like it lots!

Welcome to the boards and I hope you enjoy your EBMM!
