NGD: Axis Sport HSS Ivory

[jzeijen]

Went on a road trip yesterday and picked this one up. Was looking for a guitar with a singlecoil at the neck and this fit the bill just right, nice tone! Managed to get it for a fair price, Axis Sport are a bit hard to find over here and mostly a bit over priced. It has obviously been played, but in good shape for a 16 year old guitar. Has a nice vintage look to it, I think!

And the family:

Wow, What an awesome find!

Congrats

I told you with those guitars it's love at first chord !

BP was really inspired too when he designed the shape of the pick guard. Classic vintage vibe all the way.

A tort pickguard would look killer on that guitar!

 

[grayn]

Really nice looking guitar.
Great addition to your collection.

Thanks all, she surely is a looker. Played it all day and getting more and more used to the asymetrical neck. The singlecoil sounds really shine.

Yes it would. This suggestion just made me realize that my next search will be for an Ivory Sport with Rosewood board.

+1 great combo.
Nice score and nice family.

 

[musikarero]

killer guitar!

 

[jzeijen]

Tort pickguard would indeed look great with this color. I had a plain white AL MM90 with a tort pickguard, looked really good. I do like the black also though. So maybe a mod for in the future.
