Hi there fellow sufferers of the eternal GAS pains. I'm looking to sell my Musicman Axis Supersport. I'm sure most of you know the specs, but just in case:

Basswood body with translucent orange bookmatched flame maple top and matching headstock

Birdseye maple neck with rosewood fingerboard

Custom Dimarzio humbuckers

2 point Musicman trem

Sperzel locking machineheads

Earvana nut

Original hard case

Just a fantastic guitar in great condition. I've gigged it a few times, but I'm always careful with my guitars. There is a little fret wear, but nothing much. The case has a couple of scapes on the bottom side from being loaded into the car, but again, this is really nothing serious.

Why am I selling? Honestly, I just find the narrow nut width a little cramped. It's 41mm and feels wrong to my hands, but that's hardly the guitar's fault. It's pure preference on my part.

Beyond that, it sounds and plays wonderfully for any musical style with the five way switch splitting the humbuckers and giving Strat and Tele like tones.

Local pickup or delivery (I'm in Inchture by Dundee) would be preferred although postage can be arranged within the UK if needed. Looking for around £750.

Apologies for the pictures, I am no photographer.

Cheers.

    Yeh, UK don't have a lot of love for EBMM guitars but they are just class... I did have 6 of them now down to 4. Some incredibly great players use them pretty much as they come out the factory too & that says all you need to know. Only company I know that make an artist signature guitar you buy the same as the artist uses.

    A lot of guitar for the money but that's the way the market is at moment. Great buy for someone. Good luck.

     

    Cheers

  • Thanks Baz,

    It is a class guitar. EBMM are one of those brands that seem to do every well on a consistent basis. I've never seen a "bad" one. Were it not for the narrow (to my mind and fingers) nut I wouldn't sell it.

    But, as you say, the market is what it is right now.

    Cheers,

    Iain

    My first post here. I have a PRS Mira X I was planning on listing, might it be of interest? Has a kind of LP Junior kind of vibe. Very light weight and has an almost semi type resonance. Typical US PRS build quality etc. Just an idea.

  • Thanks for the offer Richard and were it the standard mahogany Mira  I might have gone for that.

    As it is, I have my little eye on a couple of things locally so am really looking for sensible cash offers at the moment.

    All the best with your listing.

    That's entirely cool.  Great guitar, good luck with your sale/trade.

  • Bump for another price drop...£750 now. Roll up, roll up.

  • That's very cheap for such a good guitar, but on a slight thread derail, I don't suppose you'd like to sell me the genz benz 2x12 in the picture background? wink wink nudge nudge.

  • Haha! Trying to catch me off guard? Nice try sir! It's a great cabinet which I got on closeout for less than the cost of the Eminence speakers inside and sounds fantastic no matter what I put through it.

    It's going nowhere!
