Hi!

New member here.
Im posting a few pics of my guitar. Its a 2011 R8
The guitar is totally black. I understand that this isn't a standard model.
Serial number is 811302.
I came with a sertificate.
This is the first time I'm posting pics. Please tell me if they dont show up

Cheers, Lars

Very nice! I always liked the black top on Standards. Has a classy look without being black tie. :salude

Black is beautiful.

Thank you.

It sounds incredible. Never had a guitar before that sounded this great.
I've played it through different amp setups.
It sounds really fat.

What is written on the case? Is it a Wildwood special run? Looks cool.

Love this guitar!!! I'd get one if it wasn't so close in color to my Oxblood R4... :dude:

It says Gibson Custom on the case. The case is black.Its more lilac inside than pink.
There is a tape with CS R8 60s neck, written on it. I think its from a previous dealer.
Comparing it to another R8 I've played, Im not sure that the neck is that much skinnier.

yes, black is a cool color for guitars

I may be biased, though (see my avatar)
