Was the Axis ever offered in pink? I know the evh was, but that about a standard axis model?

I have never seen one in EVH style pink, though I have seen a pinkish colour solid sparkle type thing.

Foggy any pics of that one Tim is on about?

I think that Tim might be refering to the Lavender pearl color. Look here:

When the Axis was first introduced in 1996, pink was a color option and there were a few made. It is far more rare to see a pink Axis than a pink EVH. They made 200 or so pink EVH's. Probably less than 50 pink Axis guitars. I have only seen 3 pink Axis guitars and probably 30 pink EVH's. Very rare indeed!

well you still can get an Axix Ex in Pink (the one made in Japan). I am supposed to be there by the end of the month and I will try to grap one for me, if I have the time

Thats cool but remember to bring some sandpaper with you to reprofile that EX's chunky neck!

that's the reason why I will try it before and I am not ordering it from internet.

some say that it's all american part assembled in Japan, some say that the neck is different

best thing is to try but any official answer from BP could help I think

All hardware is US, all woodwork is Japanese...used to have one!

 

[threeminutesboy]

indeed very very different

Then, I will have to make an offer to Brent for his pink Evh

 

[brentrocks]

you know, it is a really unique and cool color. i had to re-assure myself of my manlyness before i bought it, when i got it home though, it was really more of a magenta-ish tone.

it is too bad that they dis-continued it. it would be cool to see again!

Hey Hutch, is that yours? If so, she's a beauty!

[Lucidology]

How do people in the audience react to such a Pink Axe? That's beautiful, but does it take courage to play it live....??

LOL!! Courage - nah! My thoughts are: If you like it, play it - and let your playing do the talking for you.

Rock on brother.
