Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: it's your basic RG8 but with a nice poplar burl stained blue top, mahogany body and walnut fretboard. It's in good shape, apart from some local wear on the finish. Modifications (if any): I upgraded the pickups because who in their right mind would...

Hey everyone, I bought my first 8 string recently and like a lot of people, I've discovered that 10-74 on an RG8 just doesn't do the trick for me. So. I use 10-52s on a 25.5" in standard down to drop C# (sometimes drop C), then I play a 27" 6 string from drop B to drop A with 12-68s (which...

I've been thinking of getting an 8 string for a few months now, but being back in school I did not have the budget to simply jump in. I may be able to get one now, but my budget is still low. It's just that I don't really want to wait another year. Right now I play with a Jackson JS22-7 and I...

I am wanting to go lower with my guitars. Currently have a Fender Squire Vintage Modified Telecaster Deluxe. I was looking at the Ibanez RG8, and then also came across good reviews on the Fender Jazzmaster Vintage Modified Baritone. With the 8 string, will obviously have more range, but man the...

My new RG8. I've owned a few 7s in the past but sold them off and used only 6strings over the last two years. I was actually looking for a cheap 7string axe but I got a good deal on this one and went for it. The store also had a Jackson js32-8 dinky. I played both and chose this one. Feels good...

so I'm looking into getting a pickguard made for my RG8 but I dont have the tools to do it and all the websites I've been looking at need a scan of one. Anybody who's made one before (with normal humbuckers not the fugly soapbars they come stock with) have a scan or able to make one? A scan of a...

Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Black Ibanez LACS 8-string that used to belong to Dino Cazares from Fear Factory. Is one of the first 8-strings that Ibanez ever built (The Meshuggah guys got one each and also Rusty Cooley and Dino). I blurred out the serial but it's from 2005...

Noob here, which type of pots do I need if I'm planning to switch out the pots in my RG8 for a coil split sound with new pickups? I can see one is longer/bigger than the other, or is there more to the difference than meets the eye? I'd greatly appreciate any help.

Here is my custom 8 string guitar. I modeled it after the Ibanez RG8 but made lots of little tweaks like a thinner body, greater cutaway, etc. It took me quite a while to finish but it is finally done! Solid Bubinga body with a Wenge accent stripe. Maple and Wenge laminated neck with a matching...

I've got my donor neck(RG8), hardware(hipshot tuners/bridge), and humbucker(passive route), and all I need now is the body. Does anyone have the specs/diagram of the FR body? I've searched high and low and am unable ot find them; I'm pretty close to just buying a body on ebay and modifying it...

Hi everyone ! I'm proud to show you the result of my hard work on my RG8 ! I really like this guitar, it's well made, the stock playability is good, but it looks and sounds really boring. So I decided to turn it into an 8-string that could be used in every kind of project (other than metal)...

My best friend just ordered an RG8 and I want to buy him some strings. (I owe him for getting me a personally signed copy of Parkway Drive's newest album when he met the band.) It's a brand new RG8 and I'm not sure how large he can go without having to file the nut. I was thinking of getting...

Hello everyone! I just put down the payment for a new RG8. My previous guitar was a GRG170DX that I purchased about 8 years ago with everything still stock. (Learnt to play everything from Nirvana to periphery to jazz on that) However, I never took care of it. I used to dust it with a cloth...

Hey, y'all I am getting a used RG8 in from Guitarcenter online this coming week, and really am planning on throwing some new pups in there, simply because I just want to upgrade a few things on the guitar for a nicer sound. I am planning to use a lot of right hand finger picking on the...
