    The 7lb 15oz superlight I've christened "Duane" - it has an Allman Brothers vibe about the tone:

    There was this dirty lemon at GG Epsom a couple of days ago - maybe you'll get lucky?

    None listed on GG at the moment, and the one at Birmingham listed late no Friday night sold first thing Saturday morning.

    I was about to declare that dirty lemon is the only colour that consistently looks better with flame, preferably an R9....then you posted that!

    I think I've already seen two R8s that appear to be 2017 ones on ebay. One that looked nice and flamey didn't sell for 2,600.

    Wowzers. I bow out for a few months and the Gibson-shitposting-central forum generates a gazillion post thread on Les Pauls being *good* ? These are truly the end times ;-)

    So I was reading Poopots thread about his Customkits LP Special, and in it he makes reference to a vintage correct Gibson scale length. Do these R8s have that ?

    Looks like another one has been shipped out to us. It al depends on if they have the correct replacements. I have a feeling we'll get 4 replacements and the rest as credits. We'll see...

    I’m waiting to see when I pop in to collect my Kemper from Peach on Saturday if there are any R8’s in stock. If there is a washed lemon I could be in serious trouble so I’m keeping my fingers crossed ;)

    I think you'll be in luck.  They might have a washed cherry or dirty lemon though :)

    @Twinfan - I can indeed!

    An outstanding guitar.

    If it's blow-out cousins come close, then this really has been the guitar deal of the century for everyone who was able to partake.

    Just need one like this myself now :)

    If I'd seen anything weighing no more than 8lb I'd have been tempted, but I think @Twinfan got the only one.

    I don't think there were any others that low.  I think 8.3lb was the next closest?
