Has anyone played any other brand guitars where they feel the neck is very similar to an Axis? I heard the Cort NZS-1 Neil Zaza model is very similar. I'm already familiar with Peavey Wolfgangs, EVH, Sterling and OLPs, was just wondering what else might be out there.

I've bought a couple of necks for project guitars with asymetrical profiles that felt close to the Axis. It is, at its core, essentially a broken in neck.

Probably one of my favorite guitar necks ever. But I've not found one that completely replicated it.

I never played the NZS-1 but had an NZS-2 and that was as close as I've ever found to the real thing and I've had an EVH, an Axis, five super sports and my current Sports to compare it to.

Well, kinda sorta, but not really!! The Axis neck is in a world of it's own, however, I will say this, the Wolfgangs can be close, on some of the guitars (one to another?); and I did get one that was dang close, however they aren't in production anymore.

But, isn't it funny that some of us measure other guitars by EBMM; that's what I do, doesn't matter the brand, it always starts with the Axis neck!

I wasn't sure if you mean't current guitars or any guitar. Though, as most of us know, once you play an EBMM guitar - come on now, really - where you gonna go from there?!! Just being honest!
