Ya it was probably one of the best sounding and playing guitars Ive ever had, but it was too hard for me to play on the 1 11/16 nut width after getting used to the 1 5/8. It was to hard switching back and forth. That EBMM Axis i had my absolute favorite neck shape ever, but good god it was a piece of crap. The neck would move about every 2 or 3 days, it never stayed in tune (even after sending it back to music man for a full setup) and the other thing is that the neck has a 10 inch radius....well the floyd nut and bridge both had 14 in radius, so in order to get the two E strings at the correct height, the middle 4 strings would be too low and would buzz. But easily had the best neck shape of all time
