R8 Peach Deal

terada

@Twinfan loves a light one (so do I shhhh)!

Twinfan

I do indeed! I'm looking to grab another R8, but only if I can find another light weight one. I should have got the cherry from Coda that was 8.1lbs, hence me asking if that's the one mli3 has.

I honestly can’t remember the weight. I loved it, then I saw another one at coda (the grainy one I posted couple of days ago), and I loved it even more so I swapped it. They both, wierdly, sounded almost identical. 
Top marks to coda they are a great shop.

And why not! I'm out for light R8s, my 8.2 cherry that @hyperben returned suits me completely. Maybe take a punt on it and see it in person?

What's the serial @mli3? If you Google it you might find Coda's scales pic...

I got the 8.1lbs one from coda! Sorry it’s awsome and it’s a keeper but I have another at 8.8 lbs which is for sale but thinking now to keep maybe

I end up spending way too much time on maintenance when I have a lot of guitars. Costs a fortune in strings too. I think my ideal number is 3 + an acoustic, maybe I'll get there one day

Proper wow, in fact, I wish I had more wows to give.

This times 100,000,000! I was up to 12 at one point and it was a bloody military operation. Nothing got played because I couldn’t be arsed to keep restringing things! I’m at 5 + 2 Acoustics and that is my absolute max.

Oh dear. A goldtop would be nice

Strange there’s not a huge overstock of R7s to go on offer. Or maybe that’s to come...?

Twinfan

I suspect they don't make as many so there may not be much of a surplus, if any.
