Hi Everyone.

Long-time lurker, first-time poster.

I just picked up a beautiful 2006 EBMM Axis:
G06101

I *think* it is a quilted and dark honey-burst. I'll post pics as soon as I figure out how!

I am happy to be part of the EBMM club.

Congrats on your new guitar and welcome welcome to our knucklehead world! :)

Unless I get the serial number wrong, your Axis is not so new - :confused:

Your Axis info according to our records: Built 5/10/99 - Honeyburst finish (we called it Sunburst then) - maple, matching headstock, originally shipped to GC in Dallas.

Wow, this one's not a guitar you see everyday (not that any of these are) - Axis Sport, Opaque White, SSS, standard bridge, maple fretboard. It should have a Black/Cream/Black pickguard.

Well, here's a little history on your Silhouette: HSS pickup configuration, Sunburst (as we called it then), solid maple neck, built on November 6 1991 and originally shipped to a store called Ligon Guitars in a little city in the middle of Illinois called Orient. It was owned and operated by one of our best dealers at the time Louis Ligon, a nice guy.

Hey Dan-

Good one for ya. Snagged one of the first 50 (signed) Morses, #23/50. There's no serial number, the plate is just blank. Any idea of the date?

Beej, the 1st 50 Steve Morse guitars were built in the fall of 1986, but the exact dates doen't exist. What a great find!

Graphite Gray Luke

Hi there,

just picked up a graphite gray Luke G44453.

It really complements my Silhouette in sapphire black.
