I was looking at theses 8 when Dave first listed these in 2020 one was really giving gas at the time I was distracted with Rossington aged CC guitars that I never purchase one of the 8 really haunted me . I will point the one I really liked sold first . Going forward when this one appeared two weeks ago I grabbed it .Thank you for your very kind words - This guitar will be in the case when not played something I've never done - this has nothing to do with Nigel can't be touched just want the next guy to receive this guitar how Dave had the foresight to spec these . I will also ad if these 8 were R9's they would not of lasted a week on the market .

That is just flat out awesome ! You have Karma on your side for sure . I am really happy for you how this instrument came back to you . Best Wishes my Friend and really enjoy these great instruments ! (personally i prefer the R8's for there larger profile necks , just wish the new owners would give nicer tops to the R8's as they did in the Henry J. era )
