I bought that one from Sweetwater a few months back and happy with it so far, especially since I was new to 8 strings. For me it didnt make sense to pay for a fancy $1600 plus dollar guitar at the time. Instead, I invested in some pedals, cables, gig bag etc. Excellent guitar for the price 👍

Acquired 2 8-string guitars but very affordable this year and love them both. Used to play 6-string for almost 30 years and used to have couple 7-strings but never liked them that much and just got into 8-string after not being able to afford the expensive Squire Jazzmaster baritone one and not really sure the Harley Benton knock off does the track.. found my ESP Ltd 8-string in pawnshop early this year and was instantly hooked getting it.

Mick gordon the composer for doom 2016 and eternal’s soundrack said in an interview that a 9 string guitar he was gifted he could not find a use for the 9th string and that 8 strings were as many strings he felt was needed without being excessive

No 8 string yet and definitely wouldn't count out getting one. Right now I am enjoying the Petrucci Archetype with my 7 and "detuning" to get a good taste of what sounds/rhythms can come from that 8th string. If its something that I could see myself using regularly it'll only be a matter of time. Then the next hurdle will be getting used to the slightly larger fretboard and fanned frets. What's the scale length on that one? Is the string tension across the fretboard decent?

Literally just picked this up last month because I wanted to get back into playing guitar after a long break, and have always wanted an 8 string. Pretty damn satisfied with it for what I paid. The shorter length (27") makes the strings it comes with (.009 - only .065 on the lowest string) feel a little floppy but I dropped some heavier gauge ones on there and it really tightened the sound up. Good guitar for a really good price and a good option if you want to start getting into playing extended range without spending way too much money on one you aren't sure you'll like

Whats up big fella, first video of yours ive seen, but I own a RG8 (same specs white etc) and I had and sold a RG8F or what ever the name was, fishmans grey sparkle gold hardware etc, and I genuinely enjoy the RG8 more hence why i sold the 8F. But on that too I sold my RG1127 as I wasnt a fan on the neck and still enjoy my RG7221 way more. But more of a Jackson fan personally. love the video big fella

Been in the market for a 7 or 8 string the last few days but I only own a 6 string. Would you say there's a huge learning curve going straight from 6 to 8 strings? Should I start with 7 and work my way up to 8 in the distant future? So many questions! Love the video man 👍

A 9 string is lower. That’s the point. It sounds different than a bass at the same note. Thick strings don’t equal bass strings.
