    Amazing value after a setup

        Comments about Ibanez RG8 8-String Electric Guitar:

        All it needed was a string upgrade to stop the buzzing- I used a Circle K 10-86 set and now I couldn't be happier.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about Ibanez RG8 8-String Electric Guitar:

          Ive played some 8 strings before but this one is just perfect. Ive played Schecter Omen 8 and Damien 8, Esp Stephen Carpenter 8 and the budget ltd 8 string (forgot the name) and ive played a used Ibanez rga8. This is the champion by far in my opinion. This is why, the esps 25.5 scale is too short and the strings are wobbly. I hated the Damien's emgs and the omen is my 2nd fav. The ibanez rga8 was nice but i hated the floyd and the emgs. This ibanez has the flat neck back which makes the thickness a breeze, the pickups dont sound that bad (i prefer dimarzio d activator) the 26.5 scale helps,and to top it off its the same price as the Omen 8? Just perfect.

          Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
