As it turned out, we all got "the axe" in the meeting. And no... we did not receive guitars from our (former) employer. This thread has certainly explained why I have felt like hitting my guitar against a tree sometimes. Also, if "axe" means "guitar", does that mean that the real name of Guns n Roses lead singer is "Guitarl Rose"? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Apart from being a woodcutting tool an axe is a favoured weapon of both Vikings and barbarians all around the Medieval world. Some where double edged, they are considered bloody and very deadly with a sharp edge of attack. 'axe' became a slang term for an electric guitar or bass, usually used within the rock and heavy metal communities, who often like to view themselves as the modern world's very own barbarians - and, in the case of certain Scandinavian black metal acts, its very own Vikings. Gene Simmons, bass player of the good old rock band some might remember called KISS, often played a bass shaped like a large double-headed battle axe with strings attached. Not all guitars qualify as axes, but whether or not a guitar gets to bear the axe moniker is up to the axeman guitarist who wields plays it. Usually, your uber-cool new B.C. Rich model is an axe, whereas your old, trashed Strat copy or your pet acoustic is a shovel, lol. I personally call mine an axe, because... it's quick, sharp clean attack, and shreds things to bits. Deadly in the wrong hands! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.

Sorry to inflict my wierd sense of humor on you guys For us English that would be the Lynx Effect!! As that's what it's called over here! As for the real explanation, it's a mixture of Nihilist and Azzaboi's reasonings. The term originated in the Jazz world of the 50's and stemmed from what Nihilist correctly termed as 'wood-shedding',at that time it did, indeed, refer to any instrument at all. Later the term was hi-jacked by the Rock fraternity and was more directed at Guitars and basses. In 1980 there was a couple of compilation Albums called 'Axe Attack' which were compiled of all the, what are now, Classics of the day!! I have both these Vinyls!!!
