    All the Coda ones appear to have been sold now. Guess that’s it then, party over 
    Errrr... not quite. I think Coda are getting some more in soon. But, if you want one it's probably worth emailing them to say you're interested. Yesterday's batch didn't last more than a few hours.
    I was first in on yesterday’s batch so all good and arriving tomorrow. Was told that’s their last batch though 
    I think Doug was on here last night saying they've got some more 58s coming in... plus one 59 in stock now and another 59 model on the way.

    Lucky Alex. Looks like a super nice guitar, and he also has possibly the greatest name I've ever heard !

    Following my Fretboardian Rhapsody back in February - I thought I’d do another classic hit especially for this thread

    A Day In The Life (of an R8)

    I read the news today, oh boy,
    About a cracking deal from Peach guitars,
    And though the buyers all went mad,
    Well I just had to laugh,
    I saw the photographs.

    He blew his savings on a guitar
    He didn’t notice 12 months interest free
    A crowd of people read and stared
    A dirty lemon burst
    Nobody was really sure if these were standards, historics or a fraud....

    I saw a Coda deal today
    The fretboard army had just bought the lot
    A crowd of people in dismay
    They had to tell their wife
    They feared for their life
    Can’t wait to plug it in......

    For the Macca fans - here’s the middle bit ;)

    Woke up, stayed in bed
    Grabbed my laptop instead
    Found my way to Peach and had a look
    And looking up I noticed a nice tea burst
    Found my wallet grabbed my card
    Checked it out in seconds flat
    Now it’s my tea burst so I had a smoke
    And everyone lol’d as I posted my new squeeze....

    In the grand scheme of things it doesn’t matter, but it would have been nice if they included a strap and truss rod tool in the case.

    (the other new Gibson I bought a few weeks ago were supplied with them)
    Interesting - I thought Gibson had stopped supplying truss rod tools years ago...
    Turns out my BFG did come with a truss rod tool from Gibson @Twinfan ;

    (have only just had a look in the soft case as it now lives at my office)

    Well happily the truss rod tool that came with my new BFG fits the R8

    Unhappily it also makes an nice little dent on the back of said R8 when dropped........

    That means it's now players grade. Take it out and play it everywhere without worrying

    Not really a fan of washed cherry, but bloody hell that’s nice @Fifty9 ;;;

    and the first little dent hurts, but after that it’s all just character.

    Outstanding. That’s my favourite kinda washed cherry top - looks so good with that subtle flame. Congrats!

    Well, by a twist of fate and the stars aligning, this guitar will actually be delivered to me on Thursday!

    I do not have a name as cool as Alex though, but I can live with that!
