Welcome to Day 7 of my annual New Year's New Guitar Days (NYNGD)!

Well, folks, I'm blowing it. I know this year's (er... last year's) NYNGDs are trickling in at a snail's pace - I was able to finally take some time off from work and travel for the first time in 2 years last week! Now I'm home, refreshed, and here we are back at the better-late-than-never NYNGD 2021. We'll get through them, maybe in time for NYNGD 2022!

So... I think some of you said you like blue guitars? 🥶

If so, you're in luck! Today's guitar is a stunning 2021 Axis in Yucatan Blue with a really amazing quilt top and roasted maple neck. These latest Axis's are a real home run. Somehow they feel more like a vintage EBMM EVH. Maybe it's the roasted neck? The neck is amazing. It even SMELLS amazing!

This Axis is now in rehearsals for a new project I am starting (more soon)!

I'll be back soon with another NYNGD: New Year's New Guitar Day! Thanks for looking everyone!

Past Days:
The new EBMM message board limits the number of characters in a post so I can't put a list of direct links in the post. Click here for an index.

(The back story in case you're new to my NYNGD: For the past couple of years I've done a fun thing that most of you I think enjoyed, and I thought I would do it again this year. Every year, I am a slacker about keeping my Guitar Gallery up to date... So, as a fun holiday thing, let's launch a guitar in the Guitar Gallery each day leading up to New Years Eve! In the past I've received PM's about my collection and whether I play all of these guitars. :) The same question came up during my NYNGD posts a few years ago and my answer was pretty detailed and well thought-out, so please check it out here!)

(Also, in case anybody gets any funny ideas -- these guitars are not at my house. They are all in my very secure and alarmed studio facility. I usually only have two guitars floating around the house...)

I like blue guitars (my first guitar was blue, 2 of my EBMM are blue and I just bought a blue Ovation ...).
This neck is beautiful !

Nice to hear you could get some time off! Good for us, too, since we're getting more guitar pics :)

This one again is simply outstanding.
Can only guess how much work goes into taking these pics and editing them.
To be honest: to me it's no too bad distributing those NYNGD posts across a few months :D

Thanks for all the kind words, folks! I brought this one home from the studio and have it in my office today. Daylight shining in on it. The top is just amazing - even better than the photos. I wish I could capture this! NYNGD #2021-8 coming soon.

From the photos alone, I can literally see my self touching and feeling the pits and valleys of the grain, like half an inch deep/high :giggle:

Looking forward to no. 8 !
