I haven't played the FM, but the 608B is the same scale as the 2228, 27". Bending is very comfortable.
I JUST ordered it from Sam Ash.com, told them I wanted the case for the new ESP 8 string. Done.
It does not, but seeing as the case comes in at under $100, the LTD 608B with the additional cost of the case still comes out cheaper than the Ibby that comes with a case.

I just got back from trying out the fm408 and the rg2228 again. I was very IMPRESSED with the 408.

Enough to buy it over the Ibanez; for me at least. the scale wasn't even an issue. it sounded pretty good through a valvetronix and ac30 i tried out. I don't play much metal any more but I can still dial in some decent metal tones... especially with the fm408. i have to wait on the agile first before i think about getting the LTD though.

An ESP dealer told me there was no case for my FM-408 (my personal motto is "Remain Sceptical!" which I can assure you I stuck with in this situation) so I put the thing in a standard ESP 6 string Horizon case, latched it up without any excess force being placed on the guitar in any way, stood it up and wobbled the whole thing from side to side and there was no movement whatsoever. As happy as I'd be with an actual specific case for the FM-408, I'm pretty happy with the 6 string ESP case after seeing how well it fitted.

Ibanez should make RG8321, RG8421, RG8621, RG87420, RG8620's 
and Dimarzio should devolope an Eight string EVO pickup

...is something.
The ESP sigs ARE custom shop instruments (they're built by the ESP custom shop). The problem is if I'm dropping that kind of cash I want MY custom not Stephen Carpenter's
I whole-heartedly agree.

Yeah, I think it looks better with the Ebony instead of the "SRC" inlayed Rosewood. But I dont know about the Adler I dont think I have ever reallyplayed adler before
and I know the price is out there but what ever right? there is some people that bought the Dean RC7 so I think the STEF-8 wouldnt me much different on the spending end then that right?

eh would much rather spend the money on the RC7 than spend the money on a wood upgrade(or downgrade?) and an ebony fretboard when imo the LTD is enough for me
