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......

Hahaha, good stuff. You just need the McCartney bit now!

I’ll do that as an encore

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....

Boromedic

Hahahaha, genius!

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)

Twinfan

Cool!  I think you must have got lucky

I'm going to take it home and hopefully it fits my R8 as it need a bit of relief ;-)

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

I see Kennys Music has taken a big delivery of £3499 R9s...
