People still discussing these B-stock R8s? 

We’re just waiting for the £1500 ones to start showing up for sale! Soon!

Well it’s all personal preference, but I couldn’t get OX4s out quick enough. Every couple of years I have another go with them but always feel the same about them and they’re out and up for sale again.

Not my favourite as well, totally agree with your comments. Just fitted a set of SB59’s from Sunbear pickups to my traditional and they’re absolutely stunning.

Are 2018s allowed in this thread? 

Are Vintage V100 LP lookalikes allowed? This is the top of my Vintage V100AFD Reissued:-

That is a remarkably similar finish

After 2 years looking for the right plaintop after selling my lemon.....

Very hard to photograph, it's not as red as it appears.

The R8 thread lives!

Nice I like that amount of red, some of the others ended up looking like the tribute series guitars or coffee tables

Guys..........this thread is deader than Captain Tom. It's been years. Let's give it a rest after 166 pages

Nah. They're awesome guitars.

Just be glad you haven't commented on the 'word association' thread. 93 notifications every time I log in.  Worst mistake of my fretboard career.

Bit harsh innit, blokes barely cold FFS. 

Besides Gibsons are cool so long live the R8 thread and all who sailed in it.

Whilst I sympathise with the OP, I don't get why people are so dead against this thread. It's a forum and perfectly acceptable to enjoy talking about this. We all had a great time when it started and I'm enjoying my R8, as are many others, I guess.

It highlights a major flaw in the system though, the need to be able to unsubscribe from discussions that you start. @digitalscream (I know this has been discussed many times, sorry)

I denounce you as a bourgeois revisionist, spreading capitalist running-dog counter-revolutionary propaganda.  To the Salt Mines!

I see your 'Word Association' and raise you 'Emp's perpetual car search'
