SOLD LP R8 Bourbonburst (2012) £2,200

Trude

Here's my 2012 Les Paul R8. 

Lightly used and with only minimal playing marks, which I've tried to show in the photos.  It's a 2012, but the original owner bought it as NOS in about 2016.  He was scared to take it out of the house, but I've gigged and rehearsed it a fair bit in the last year.  According to the previous owner the finish is Bourbonburst VOS.

Very lively and resonant, and an absolute joy to play with a nicely chunky typical R8 neck.  This is the guitar I always reach for when playing at home, but truth be told I find the neck a bit too big when trying to fly around the fretboard at a gig.  There's not a lot in it, but my BB57 suits me that little bit better.  I suspect an R9 will tempt me at some point, but for now I need to get some money in the bank for an upcoming studio build project!

Weighs in at a very comfortable 8.28lb

There's currently a metal jackplate fitted, but the original is included, along with the COA and all the other paraphernalia.

I'm in Fareham, Hampshire.  Collection preferred, but I'll ship fully insured at cost if need be. 

£2,200 is my pre-haggled price.  I won't be dropping any further, so don't be shy if you like the look of this

That's an awesome colour! It'll fade beautifully with al that red around the edges!

Yep, it's pretty much my benchmark of what a burst should look like. Would love to see it in a few years time
