Relisting: Had a local sale but the money never materialized. I took some new pics and realized once I had it outside that the finish is not just a solid cherry red -- it's a solid cherry red SPARKLE. It almost tempted me to keep it, but I'm flush with Axis models, so here we are.
This is a 1990's Axis EX in very good . Fast neck, low action and really high output Dimarzio Custom Humbuckers. Her action is ULTRA low and she plays flawlessly. These MIJ 90's EX's are now getting really quite scarce & to find one in this condition was a real pleasant surprise. She comes with her original EBMM Gig Bag.
The Music Man Axis EX model was only produced in Japan for a limited period of time. The original USA parts were assembled by Music Man Japan (Kanda Shokai) with highest perfection and attention to details. Rumor has it that the leftover parts from the "EVH" Signature were used in the production of this guitars. Very high quality build instrument.
Frets have life left. It could probably stand to have a dressing at some point, but there's no dead spots or issues. There's light pick whorl and such as you'd expect for a guitar this age. No major dings or scrapes that I could see or feel. There's a little rough area on the fretboard high E side towards the upper frets, but it doesn't impact playing at all. Just throwing it out in full disclosure -- there's a pics of it above. There's also a small ding on the headstock (picture with an arrow) and there's a place on the front upper horn area that you can feel more than see -- I couldn't get it to show up in the pics but it won't. There's no other issues I can see or feel.
