Ernie Ball Music Man 30th Anniversary Axis Translucent Gold Quilt w/case

The Ernie Ball Music Man 30th Anniversary Axis revisits the translucent finishes that defined the original 1996 release, pairing a hand-stained quilt maple top with a subtly color-matched, lightly sparkled black back. This Gold Quilt version is limited to 120 instruments worldwide and reflects both the heritage and refinement of the Axis platform.

Built with the original asymmetrical neck carve, a roasted figured maple neck and fingerboard, and stainless steel frets, it delivers a fast, broken-in feel with excellent stability. DiMarzio custom-wound humbuckers and a double-locking tremolo round out a setup designed for clarity, punch, and consistent performance.
