Im thinking about building THIS!! (8 STRING ALERT!!)

CooleyJr · 06-09-2008, 07:08 AM

WAHAHAHAHA.

What do you guys think?
Y or N

I had some fun with V-RG Builder... then i went to Paint... then i ended up with an 8 string.

I want to build this so bad.

If i get 20 replies saying yes.. ill build it later this year.

Yes

Better yet, who gives a fuck what we think; you obviously like it, build that son!

And then post clips, lots of pictures, and if it turns out well, gives it to us, precious, it's our birthday!

Edit: I dunno about the switch position, actually... seems like it's down on the bevel? I would think that would be a pain to do, that far out on the edge and in a carved area; maybe move it under the neck pickup... or put it above and to the right of the neck pup, comparable to an LP? Or... do kinda like Rob did KK Downing's KxK custom, make the Volume knob a push/pull pickup switch!

To me it's fine...do it

CooleyJr · 06-09-2008, 07:16 AM

I really want 20 people to say yes to it.
That build would cost me over $1500 if i wanted it to be perfect lol.

hmmhmm... SO....

18 more to go

You should do one of these instead

Allrighty, my signature Ibanez eight, the RM8!
