In the past I've seen the odd Axis advertised as Teal. They never looked quite like blue. Was this a limited run colour? If so will it be back?

I'm not sure if it has been done previously and not sure if it will be done in the future. But I can say.... in my experiance, all of the ones I have encountered have in fact been a standard Trans Blue finish, that have just aged/faded/morphed since leaving the factory.

Mine left the factory some 10 years ago trans blue and is currently an uber lovely sea foam blue/green. Pretty close to the tastey teal your describing i think.

I'd say keep an eye out second hand or alternatively...
Buy a new one, play 10 years and see what happens... worst case scenario you get an amazing guitar :D

I'm on my second "teal" Axis. My original name on this forum was tealaxis. This is a pic of my first one:

The top was sick. Here's a pic of my current one:

Nothing wrong with this top either. This one leans a bit more towards teal. Of course, both are trans-blue. And yes, it has been offered here and on the 'bay. I've got a LUKE I waiting to come home to me. Anyone?
