Hmm, I don't know where that term originated, but I never ever referred to my bass or guitar as an "axe". Non-musicians sometimes do that, but guitars are not medieval weapons. Now, I've heard the term "Hammer of the Gods", which refers specificially to Led Zeppelin's music.
However, there are a few famous examples of Mr. Keith Richards wielding his guitar as a baseball bat--see "Let's Spend the Night Together (the movie)" for an example LOL.
