UPDATE... not selling my axis

[Polaris]

Well, its only taken a couple of weeks of solidly trying out every guitar I can get my hands on to lead me back to the conclusion that my axis is a keeper.

I was convinced there was something better out there but for me there wasn't a single guitar that felt right - not one. After giving up the search I decided to get a setup done on my Axis as well as changing the pickups for something with a lower output... result? I've fallen in love with this guitar again!

I guess everyone gets a little itchy about their gear - especially for me since I don't like owning more than one guitar... well, I didn't like owning one guitar

I just bought a rosewood brother for my v.sunburst axis which should be arriving this week! As soon as it arrives I'll be posting pictures a-plenty of the both of them!

This is cause for celebration right ?

uhu

I think so, yep

I thought the grass was greener, but it wasn't. Simple as that. After a setup and change of pickups the guitar is now working much better for me.

Apologies - my last post seemed like a big "whoop!" for not much, but I'm at work and nobody here plays guitar, dammit!

if you end up selling the old pickups let me know.

thanks

Well, the last set of pickups were bareknuckle warpigs but I still have the original dimarzios somewhere.

Not sure how much they're worth at all - I'd assume the same as any other 2nd hand set of Dimarzios?

I'll have a think about that, though - I have an old washburn that I might spruce up a bit for a friend...

Geno needs them for an Axis, definitely sell them to him if you sell them. I'd like them, but he needs them more.

 

[Polaris]

I'll dig them out tonight - I have a funny feeling the tech that replaced them the first time cut a fair length of the wires away but if that is the case I'll knock a bit off the price as that's something that can be fixed, after all

 

[Geno_xl]

you guys are awesome! I just wanted to let you know that.

 

[Polaris]

haha, no worries. No point having them collecting dust if someone if someone could put them to good use

I'll let you know...

 

[Geno_xl]

it's cool. and no pressure either. If you decide not to sell them I won't hold it against you.

 

[Tim O'Sullivan]

You always come back to the Axis!

pickups

Ok, I had a look yesterday and the pickups are fine. The bridge wire might need extending but all in all they're in good order.

Geno_xl - I've not sold anything via a forum before! How d'you want to do this?

 

[Geno_xl]

cool. I just sent you a pm.
