Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: Setup Confirmed
From Ernie Ball / Music Man Guitars
The Axis Super Sport guitar is offered with a roasted, figured maple neck, 22 stainless steel frets, and 2 exciting new finishes: Yucatan Blue and Roasted Amber. The Super Sport retains all the classic features, including the ever-comfortable asymmetric neck shape, proprietary Ernie Ball Music Man vintage tremolo with locking Schaller tuners, 5-way switch, volume/tone controls, and custom DiMarzio humbuckers. Available with your choice of flame or quilt maple top over a basswood body, this tonewood/pickup combination is a perfect recipe for hard edge rock tones but also delivers a subtle dynamic response at lower volume levels when needed.
