I hate to start this but I did some searches and couldn't find much of an answer. I'm curious what I have on my hands here with this new 2019 R8. I expected a big, chunky neck profile, but what I got was a rather slim, very comfy neck profile, smaller than the one on my '06 R9. I'm not complaining as much as just being curious if I might have a gotten a mis-build, an R8 with an R0 neck? ("Mis-build" is what we would call it in the auto industry, where the wrong feature or option is installed by mistake) The guitar is otherwise to spec.
Some rather rough lacquer on the bass side neck binding. Would not be something that would cause me to get a repair but wondered if anyone else has seen this.
The guitar is a gem otherwise, setup was almost perfect. Loving the "no wire" ABR-1 so much I ordered one for my R9.
