NGD EB Music Man

Post by StratMatt »

2 hour round trip to pick up this beast after work last night. What a great feeling neck! Sounded wicked through the blokes Friedman Runt 50. Though I think I may have convinced him to get an AX8 :rofl:

I like how the wang bar is always on, they’ve allowed a space for it in the case. Will give it the obligatory new strings and a bit of a setup and she’s a keeper ;)

That is very cool, I think the black makes the fretboard stand out more, which is cool.
They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

Whilst I LOVE the EBMM Axis (I have one) I would never call it a particularly versatile guitar. The Axis Super Sport definitely is, but in standard Axis form, the relatively high output pickups, no tone control and lack of coil tapping/switching options renders it, in my opinion, LESS versatile than the average HH guitar.

That said......the sound and playability of these things is frikken awesome!!!! I can't imagine I'll ever get rid of mine.

Looks great in black!

It almost played itself. The neck profile was smooth.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I’m really digging it. Wasted a pack of 10s on it this morning though; really needs 9s. Didn’t have any around, got a pack while I was out today. It’s great to be able to tune to Eb without having to refloat the floyd.

Indeed. Must have been the Axis Super Sport. Now THAT is a versatile guitar.
