    I think you will find that mics were listed as “guest who has a business running these kind of effing things to bring their own bloody mics”

    but alas.. you forgot..

    Are they actually *worth* that much? I've seen a few about too.

    I presume as most the R8s are in happy owners hands, and not on sale, we might see the thread calm down a little.

    FYI - Peach will have an Iced Tea 8.5/8.6 lb (can't remember specifically) plaintop R8 back for sale very soon no doubt.

    I really like the Custombuckers - think they are the best pickups Gibson have made (maybe even since the PAF!). I do also like the MHS pickups too - wonder how different they actually are to Custombuckers?

    I wonder what the people selling their custom buckers don’t like about them?

    I think I have already said it but my R8 is the first guitar I have ever bought where I don’t feel the need to change a thing.

    They really are great pups and playing classic rock or blues they really sing. I just prefer hotter pups in my les Paul’s.  Wouldn’t sell them though

    Custombuckers seem to vary a LOT.  I'm thinking of swapping out the ones in my R9 as they're pretty weak at 7.8k with AIII magnets.  Very low output that don't suit me so well.

    In contrast, my R8 has a pair at 8.3k and they sound a lot better, possibly with slightly stronger magnets too.

    Just like the old days of PAFs....
