Nice 8 string Brian, very classy looking. (except for those foreign looking things where your pickups used to be.)

Thanks Bob (I think)!

Jared: I very much like this look. The fretboard really stands out. Why not go for black stings too!

Aye, but me thinks only DR makes coloured strings, none for an eight banger...

waiting for the DR Black Beauties...

I would love for those to have black fretboards.

Henny, you have hurt the feelings of my GVA!!... c'mon she's not THAT bad looking! LOL

...however you have made my black Stingray5's day

Jeff you have to let me know how that Dean 10 string is if you get one.

How about a 12-string...

...and before anyone dismisses this as a "harp", the musician who plays this instrument (Garry Goodman) uses all 12 strings, using a lot of two-handed techniques. And he's the real deal: he's not a chops-******, he's a real musician. Just think of it as a grand piano guitar.

Do you think there is any (much) graphite in that neck?

Hey Jeff - I think you could sneak a 13th string in there!
