nope, carvin only sells 8 string neck blanks.
you'd honestly be better off buying a cheap rg8 or an 8 string from china, gutting it of the electronics, and then modding it to your heart's content.
otherwise, contact @djohns74 he can build you a neck/body.

^^ I would recommend an agile select custom as well. They’re about $650 shipped with hsc, with most expensive options. You can choose set neck or bolt on as well as fretboard options and finishes. Worth a look

theres a no pickup selection option over there, does it mean it will come with empty room for me to place whatever i want in it? or literaly odd block of wood? (hehe)

Read the spec list.

It'll be a complete guitar.

As others have said, no one is really making ready to build 8-string necks and bodies, at least anything cheap and reliable. If you're looking for a project, grab a cheaper production 8 and mod the heck out of it.
