Hey guys, I purchased this Jackson USA B8 Deluxe used about 6 months ago, and I am finally getting around to posting some pictures/videos of it. I can't say enough good things about it; it really has become my favorite guitar that I own and has pretty much become my main axe.
This particular guitar has seen some tour use, and there is a decent amount of wear on the finish, so its definitely not pristine like a new one would be.
My favorite features are the walnut top with matching headstock, the body shape, and the speed of the Jackson neck.
The things I would change if possible would be adding locking tuners and increasing the scale length to 28" for low tunings.
Here is a video review I did on the B8 with a few riffs:

I play guitar in a band called Divitius from Portland, OR and all of our music is written on 8-string guitars. Our sound is primarily heavy riffs influenced from Deathcore/djent/metalcore with some ambient soundscapes. We used this B8, a DC800, and a Banshee Elite 8 on our album. We recently put out a guitar playthrough of one of our tracks that is posted on The Circle Pit, check it out if you are interested in seeing this B8 in action:
