AXN Guitars - Sneek Peek Model 1 Skulls Artwork - 1/24/2023

We have a run of guitars coming. The AXN Model 1 hardtail guitars are pure RockNRoll. I spent years to research and develop the specifications for these hardtails. I really wanted to make them 1980s authentic. These are Les Paul Killers. Not that I don’t love a great LP. But this platform of the SuperStrat is viable for hard rock.

As it looks i took an edgy direction on the specifications and the artwork. I liked it! I let the videos tell you guys a little more.

Thanks for following. The socials will have more frequent updates. Keep in touch with questions

Best Wishes, Johnny

The AXN Model 2 SunsetStrip For 2023 -1/21/2023

We have a one-off for 2023. This guitar was relic’d extra. Everyone seems to like more versus less relic so it looks like thats where we are headed. Very artful and very classy is how I would say this one was done.

We manufactured one guitar in between custom orders specifically to leave for sale at AXNguitars.com.

Enjoy the photos and have a great week!

DIFFERENT - JUST DIFFERENT! -1/11/2023

I’m ranting here... Thank you for viewing, but I love this stuff!! It’s Badass!

It’s 80s … it’s accurate 80s and with modern engineering. I studied these RockNRoll guitars for decades. I know the history and it really is pretty darn interesting. I consider what the luthiers of the 1980s were doing as hand made Fuctional Art.

I refined a formula for something very different from whats available today... Recently i found out that you can keep the unique aspects of a 1980s guitar. Also you can add some modern touches because manufacturing and technology progressed. It now allows us to make stuff way more precise. All these things seem to have come about just so I can create cool 80s guitars that actually play and sound way better than guitars did then.

Thanks for checking out these video shorts and Keep in Touch Friend!

AXN Guitars SuperWide Sustain Blocks in Action 1/09/2023

AXN SuperWide Sustain Blocks in Action

Hey its Johnny, as you guys know all AXN Guitars Model 2s have a Floyd Rose that was engineered with a special sustain block. We patterned them after the Prototype Sustain blocks used in the first run of Floyd Rose tremolos from the early 1980s. There was a big difference in craftsmanship materials and alloys used. We were able to create the “Ultimate Floyd Rose Experience” by manufacturing these by hand in the USA!

After number of question and requests I put together this post for informational purposes. Both of these guitars have AXN Superwide sustain blocks in them as standard equipment.

You can also see more on our Artists Page

Have a great week!

AXN Guitars Model 2 and Model 3 SuperStar Year 2022 in review

Hello ts Johnny from AXN Guitars. This is just a follow up. Thank you for all your messages and the great words of encouragement in 2022. I promise, we have gotten caught up on custom orders. I have manufactured a few guitars just to post for sale on my web site. I will be listing those AXN guitars on my Available AXN Page very soon!

The year 2022 was interesting and eventful. We refined our guitars to Gen2. Our Generation 2 designs incorporated our SuperWide Sustain Blocks into all our guitars. In addition we finally launched my AXN Model 3 Superstar into the line which was the result of much refinement and R&D .

The Gen2 design refinements included many small details that brought my guitars just a bit closer to period correct 1980s. One such detail was the size of the neck heel where the neck fits into the neck pocket at the 22nd fret. We increased the necks heel to 2-1/4 inch which is just a hair wider and a popular size that was used only in the 1980s by Charvel Jackson guitars and also Fender Guitars. Other small refinements were our period correct tremolo posts and a wiring and shielding process that was used by Wayne Charvel and Grover Jackson during that RockNRoll era which bring clarity and headroom to humbuckers in electric guitars

I was excited to add two RockNRoll guitar players as AXN Guitar artists. Mr Bruce Kulick formerly of KISS and Mr Tommy Skeoch formerly of Tesla. You can learn more about them on my AXN Artists Page.

Lastly, after much back and forth I was able to complete a custom humbucker pickup with BareKnuckle Pickups. Our AXN Custom Bareknuckle Holy Diver 2-Wire Humbucker is our choice in our AXNs for 2023.

Okey Dokey I will keep this short. Checkout the two above videos which display some 2022 AXN Guitars.

Thanks and Keep in Touch! Send and email with suggestions and ideas to me. I like your opinions!
