Description
Many of the R8's we've had in the shop over the years have had plain maple tops, but this gorgeous example shows off a gorgeous figured maple top under an ultra cool sunburst finish. An excellent R8 sporting a pair of creamy sounding humbuckers that kick out rich, robust tones. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action so it's ready to rock straight out of the case.
