Lowdown Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Very nice axe; I like! What made you decide against the R8? I knew this was coming[biggrin] Well,I looked and looked. Saw one R8 that I almost went after but then I saw this. Like I said,I looked at ebony customs,changed my mind for R8,back to customs...on and on it went. I really don't know except this one just stood out. Looked beautiful. Didn't care that it was swissed 1 iota. I have a chambered standard that is sweet as pie. Anyways...this is what chose me so this is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwness Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Beautiful guitar Low I can see why you went with the Trad. Two questions. How did playability and tone compare on this one and the R8 and Customs? What was the difference if any in cost also. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hector Arcadius Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 So...after looking. And looking. And some more looking. I decided finally on what I wanted to add to the bretheren. I looked at R8's' date='Ebony Customs(2 but mainly 3 pups) until I set eyes on this - [img']http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss342/wyreandwood/Trad.jpg[/img] 2010 Trad Honeyburst + Arrives next Friday at latest. I likee. So wotcha all think huh... I quoted you so that anyone can just admire that georgeous piece once again! In total honesty man: this is by far the most beautiful Trad I have seen! I don't care for the ''why didn't you get a R8/R9'' issue. As long as you fall in love with a guitar, it means that you will not to be able to keep your hands off her, which is what matters most.

mcmurray Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Where did you buy it from Lowdown? Locally or overseas? Next Friday may be a tad optimistic. I'm STILL waiting for a 2010 Gibson model that I've had on order since mid November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
