Ernie Ball Music Man 1999 Axis Sport HH Tremolo Trans Purple + G&G Hard Case 05420
This is a nicely preserved 1999 Ernie Ball Music Man Axis Sport in translucent purple. Comes with original G&G hard case. Weight = 7lbs, 2oz.
Condition
Cosmetically this 25-year-vintage guitar is excellent. There is some mild pick scuffing down below the strings. But beyond that only a couple tiny marks and you’ll really have to hunt for them. This guitar has really been well treated over the years. Frets show mild flattening but nicely playable.
Features
— Lightweight basswood body
— 10” radius birdseye maple neck w/ rosewood fretboard
— Volume, Tone & 5-way pickup switch
Sound & Playability
Awesome 10-inch radius neck sits squarely between modern Fender and Gibson necks. Snappy, responsive rosewood board is ready to play and enjoy. I I believe these came stock with DiMarzio humbuckers but please do your own research. Tremolo works great. Locking tuners. In short a vintage EB that’s ready to go into action. Note, the USA-made G&G hard case sports gold piping and hardware. Top notch UK-made Cheney latches with case key. I do a full setup and expert packing: details below. Thanks for looking!
About Me
My store is a one-person small business that has been selling used guitars and basses for 15 years now. I do a basic setup and cleaning on every instrument I sell, so depending on workload it may be 1-2 business days before your guitar ships. When it arrives you can depend on it being, clean, set up, and securely packed. Check my feedback for confirmation. Thanks!
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
