My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youA few belters but have to say some of the tops look pretty underwhelming relative to some of the R8s. A few weighing in over 9lbs too.
If I hadn’t just bought an ES-335 for most of £3k and/or had better finances I’d have been tempted for investment alone. Can’t imagine we’ll see new R9s at this price again. Crazy how many must have been sitting around the warehouse.
If you are heading to Epsom, this one was especially nice when I was in there testing R8's:

(Prefer the darker rosewood on this)

Do you think the top is worth the extra £1k or compares dimly to what some of you recently got in your r8s?

Eveey time I’ve bought a new Gibson I’ve played each of the model I want in the shop and no two have felt the same at all. And the difference between my most and least favourite has been a chasm.
Please folks, do the right thing here. Go and play with your hands awake, your ears open and (as much as you can have) your eyes closed.
