I'd like some suggestions about what 8 string I should buy next.
I currently have an RG2228A and I love it so much that I have decided to get another 8 string instead of another 7. The neck profile is so incredibly comfortable that I think I find it more comfy than my UV7BK.
Options I'm considering:
- Kiesel but I'm a little worried that I may not love the thinner neck profile and I've heard the customer service has been pretty bad lately.
- RG5328 but I've heard those have been a total crapshoot and I'm not sure how different the neck profile is. Unfortunately I can't find a place nearby to try one out.
- S5528 would be sweet but pretty hard to find and I'm a little worried the mahogany body would lead to some muddiness in the low end.
- J Larada but that's a little out of my price range
I have a hard cap at $3000. Playability and quality are my highest priority. I wouldn't mind a multiscale but it's not a requirement. I don't mind buying used either.
