The newest addition to the Music Man line, the Axis Sport, gives players the classic styling and performance of the Axis with a 25 1/2" scale, and 10" radius neck. It features the same profile as the Axis with a choice of a maple or rosewood fretboard. The solid lightweight ash body is available in translucent gold, red, purple, blue and green, opaque ivory, black and three-tone sunburst. A choice of two humbuckings, three single-coils, or one humbucking with two single-coils makes the Axis Sport a versatile instrument for rock, blues, or country. Single-coil configurations come with Music Man's patented "silent- circuit" that reduces single-coil hum without altering the sound. The new vintage style tremolo, designed and built by Music Man, incorporates bent-steel bridge saddles with a modern, two-pivot design. The top plate is made from stamped steel and the tremolo block is machined out of solid steel. The combination of precision bushings, locking detent, and a tension adjustment keeps the tremolo arm from coming out and offers players the option of setting the arm to rotate freely or placing it in a fixed position. With Schaller® M6-IND locking tuners and the new tremolo, players do not need any tools to change strings.
