Here you go! My digital camera isnt that great and just doesnt do the color / top justice but it gives you EBMM fans something to look at. I'm so happy with it!

I also have a Japanese made MM Axis EX on delivery (got it off ebay) so will let you know how they compare sound and constructionwise once I've had a good play!

Hey...HEEEEEEEY!

My recently acquired Axis Sport has the MM90s and a plain transparent purple finish with a few nicks here and there, and nary a hint of flame or even a single birdseye on the neck, and I must say enjoy the sound and playability of this "Plain Jane" far more than my '92 PRS Custom (which sleeps comfortably in it's case like the "lawyer's guitar" that it could be accused of being - funny thing is it has a flame maple cap that blows away 90% of the so-called "10 tops" they put out)... ;)

Estin, if you've never tried the MM90s, or any P90s in general, give 'em a whirl sometime. Definitely sits smack in the middle of the netherword between singles and humbuckers, and has the best of both (save for perhaps a little less sensitivity to pinch harmonics compared to some of the more modern humbuckers - however, they still be coaxed out with a little bit of technique and gear manipulation)....the tone's most definitely happening, and EBMM's Silent Circuit is the main reason why this one is finally the first guitar I've bought that had P90s on it.

Yea I love the flame on this one, and it looks even better in person! ;) I wish I could find a black one with a flame just like it. Of course if I did I probably would not be able to afford it anyway lol. :(
