I have 3 silo specials and I love them but the axis neck is incredible! now I know why so many of you like ozzyrules have tons of them, I like the silo body but the neck on the axis/ss is really comfy and fun to play...
 
Maybe I played a winner but I swear it felt great in my hands, if I could put that neck on my silo special body with 2 HBs it would the ultimate guitar...I forgot what the AL feels like as I don't have a large selection of MM in my area but that might be the ticket..
 
The BFR Luke 3 seems like the perfect blend of Axis and Silhouette. The HH version is next up on my list of guitars... It was the BFR Al until I played the L3 at NAMM. I still very much want the AL... Damn GAS!
 
I just bought a JP6 Mystic Dream guitar today and I just stopped playing for about 2 hours none stop. It was a lot of fun but I prefer my Axis Super Sport. The neck is just amazing and it fits perfectly for my hand size I guess. The Axix is heavier but it still feels better... I was hoping that the JP6 would feel close to the Axis but right now I don't think so. Can anybody recommend my another EBMM guitar that would be very close to the Axis Super Sport?

Thanks in advance

I can't explain the love for my Axii compared to the silo sp. I love them all, but there's some super mojo about the ass & axis.
 
Neck on axis is probably the coolest thing I've ever held in my hands, right next to a pint of freaking cold beer :)

Wait, I've got an idea for beer:
EBMM Brewing Co.
-SuperSport Red Ale
-Axis Imperial IPA
-Albert Lee Stout
-Silhouette Special Blonde Pale Ale
-Luke Lager
-JP Porter


.....maybe I just need a cold beer right now????

I love the neck on the axis but the small frets have always put me off. For me the JP is the perfect compromise between the traditional feel of a fender and the modern playability of an ibanez.

Greatest thing about EBMM; there's something for everyone.

Dude! You are soooooo right. Just recently was on the Big Poppa Smokers Facebook page. OMG!!!!!!! I was so hungry after looking at each picture I couldn't stand it…and I had to settle for a plain old ham sandwich for lunch. Talk about disappointing!

My neighbor just got into smokers. We are going to duke it out with ribs.
