Emex Londaxe

This was given to me by my niece's husband, it had been in his shed for about 10 years, and looked like it when he gave it to me!

It's had a good clean, I've had to rewire the selector switch as the original one was broken. Not a lot I can do about the battle scars other than refinishing, which I don't particularly want to do

I can find very little information, other than it was designed in the 90's by Jerry Auerswald ( who designed Princes' iconic guitars) it was possibly produced in eastern Europe. Matt Bellamy of Muse used one for a while

EMEX Londaxe.

Many thanks to Paul Harris for sending in this rarity, saying;

"I have had this guitar for approx 15 years, but information is scarce on the web. Matt Bellamy of Muse used one, but famously smashed it up on stage! Mine is in yellow stain finish, the same as Matt's. The guitar has Sperzel locking tuners, and Schaller parts inside. the set up is very similar to a Telecaster, and the headstock boasts a bottle opener!"
