One thing I haven't heard anyone mention is that the intonation on this guitar is set up terribly from the factory. You have to remove the springs and trim the screw in order to intonate the lowest two strings correctly.
Thank you sharing for your mods, those painted knobs look cool... a closer pic perhaps?
Regarding the intonation problem, it has been mentioned before, sorry...
About the intonation problem, I guess there was a thread about it...
I just cant win can I
Anyway the switch is just different because melted the inside of the stock switch messing around with the wiring so I had to buy a new one. It was actually a real pain but I kinda dig it now haha.

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones that didn't need to cut the intonation screw shorter to intonate it. That being said, I am only using a .075 in F at the moment.
I've got the low F saddle as far back as it goes and that spring is pretty cozy. I'll probably snip the spring shorter next string change so I have a bit more travel.
Friend, You won the first time by making your guitar truly yours, that's all one needs...
Since I'm not liking the neck on my rg8(cramps my hand due to thinness), I'm now pondering getting a neck custom made for it. I figure this is better than getting a new guitar completely, since I'd probably go for a schecter banshee or similar, so around the 800 dollar mark.
The new Schecter neck profile is thinner than the profile on the RG8.
That sir , is atleast very interesting , thank you !
.. and compaired to the Ibbys , how is the stringspacing ? specificly it's nutwidth ; a RG8 is 55mm , the 'old' Schec 8 are 53.5 mm ..
