^ I really like the finish on it. What gauge string is the F#? Any good guesses? It looks pretty fat.

sorry guys for starting that discusstion but I was just putting my opinion.

I have 25,5 scale 7strings,27scale AX baritone and had donnies 9string ergo that had almost 29'

my opinion was based on some experience with low tuning,and I mean F# or E

so

For me:
27scale 8string guitar is useles.I can't tune it down so low as I would want to and tunning it higher then standard 8string tunning is .... I would rather buy another 2077XL

peace

That's cool man, it just seems to me at some point one ceases to be playing guitar and begins playing bass. Have you thought of just picking up a 6 string bass?

Galaxy Black is the colour.

The new RG2228 seamed to be the real hit with the player crowd. It had so many fingerprints on it I figure the later high res pics I took will lick the dogs balls, but everybody was having a blast playing, trying to play, or pretending to play it. I can tell you that I could just barely reach the lowest [F#] string anywhere over half scale, and I'm not lacking in the finger length department [and of course everybody knows what else that means.......large gloves!!]. The near 4mm of excess runoff from string edge to fretboard edge was IMO far too much considering the extreme width of the neck already, but, you sure won't be pulling the strings off the edge of the board, if you can reach them to begin with!
