R8 Peach Deal

Top two on left....my favourites.

I have one of these late 2017 R8s and it's a brilliant guitar - a plain top and an R9 neck profile is my perfect Les Paul.

The 2018 R8s have smaller frets, which aren't my cup of tea.

That looks very much my cup of tea but I know if I buy one it would end up on here within 3 months for £1250 as Les Pauls never seem to stick with me.

it looks beautiful though and the video showing how the wood is recovered is fascinating too.

If I had the money and were in the market.. Id snap that up....

Nah my standard is still my go to les Paul. Can't see another one being as good as that one However some of those did take my eye for their looks

I win! I was a nano second from clicking add to basket on one...then had a word with myself! 

Same here! I was about to click on a Dirty Lemon. Then remembered I have a lemon and I’m picking up an oxblood R4 tomorrow...

Resale value of my £3,300 2016 R8 just nose dived...

Oh well, not selling anyway, I wish PRS would do something similar with DGTs! I'm saving for one and not selling the R8 to fund it, you hear me brain, you're not selling the R8!

I forgot these have the smaller frets, no good for me then.

There's a DGT SE in the pipeline apparently.

These are 2017 models: so proper frets

Don't worry once these are sold out the value should return...

Sounds Lovely - Here's the vid for mine

So, I got contacted by Peach today after buying mine. It has suffered quite a ding/gouge on a back edge. Peach sent me pics after alerting me to this, well done Peach! Peach have been brilliant in dealing with this, giving me various options, and I have opted to choose another from the next batch due in soon, at the same spec. 

So, I’m going to have to be patient now. But kudos to Peach, I can’t fault them.

My bank account is telling me I'd be spending £2.5k on yet another guitar. My heart is telling me that I'd be saving £2k on yet another guitar....
