2017 Ernie Ball Music Man BFR Axis - w/OHSC, COA, case candy, #42/60



A guitar that is as much a pleasure to ogle as it is to play, this 2017 Ernie Ball Music Man Axis with Koa top from the Ball Family Reserve is something to behold. Number 42 in a limited run of 60 instruments, this one has been played sparingly and shows little to no signs of wear. We're calling it Excellent condition, because it IS hanging in a guitar store after all - but many would call it Mint. Everything you love about the Axis, but with the gorgeous Koa top that just pushes it over the edge in the cool department. Includes a clean original hard plastic case, certificate and all the case candy. Here's your chance! 

Here's what Wilcutt Guitars had to say about theirs. All the same applies to #42:

Limited to just 60 pieces world wide, this Ball Family Reserve Axis features an African mahogany body with figured Koa top. The neck and fretboard are made of roasted figured maple and features stainless steel frets. Both the body and neck are wrapped in matching black binding. The chrome covered DiMarzio humbuckers, stainless steel frets and translucent back and sides contribute to the exclusive quality of this instrument. Each guitar ships with a numbered certificate of authenticity and an SKB hardshell case.
