Exceptional Guitars

To mark 30 years of the Axis, Ernie Ball Music Man is revisiting the translucent finishes that defined its 1996 debut-Translucent Gold, Black, Pink, Red, Blue, and Purple-applied to hand-stained quilt maple tops and paired with black, lightly sparkled backs that subtly echo each color. Each guitar features a figured maple neck with stainless steel frets, glow-in-the-dark side dots, the original asymmetrical neck carve, and the sought-after DiMarzio® custom-wound pickups that helped define the Axis feel and sound. Finished with a color-matched headstock face, a 30th Anniversary Axis logo on the back, and limited to 120 Gold, 100 Black, 100 Pink, 100 Purple, 100 Blue and 100 Red instruments worldwide, every guitar ships with a certificate of authenticity and a deluxe Music Man® hardshell case.
