Well guys, you are gonna freak.

Went to the store... had a fiddle with both. Axe deffo feels nicer in the hands - trigger better too. Even with the Etha's price drop to £270, it didn't tempt me.
I ended up thinking "what am I doing?" and just bought a box of paint and put it through the Ego11 to break it in more. And of the day, fired 2500+ shots through her today (dry fire too) to try an bed her in more. Almost 4 cases through her now and she is starting to feel better. Even the 7 month old Draxxus paint I bought cheap was pretty darn good. Snap shooting, bang on on the targets. So was the streams of paint.
I *think* I am just going to keep the EGO11 and focus on breaking her in more and tuning her better for consistency.

Thanks guys for all your help, and I am sorry the advice you gave never lead to a purchase :(
Good decision, would have been a waste of the Ego otherwise :)
