Need help identifying Axis late 90's? Solid Black!

I just wondered if anyone on here may know anything about the guitar I have.

I have looked at a lot of photos of early production Axis’, but can’t see any solid Black with a pickguard? I just wondered if this has been added by a previous owner!

The original single ply pickguard is the cream one, I swapped for the black 3 ply as I thought it looked a little cooler, but both looked great.

Cheers guys and thanks for any advice!
