R-458BK Fanfret : A truly amazing guitar

I purchased this guitar because I wanted to try out a 8 string and fanfare guitar. Coming in at < £160 this is the absolute cheapest one I could find.

The build quality and playability for this price is just amazing. Yes, the pickups aren't amazing, but they are more than sufficient for messing around with 8 strings. From my short time with it, I have no complaints with what this guitar provides.

Alas, after spending a weekend with it, I decided to return it. For the sole reason of that I just don't thing 8 strings are for me. I'll just keep to 6 & 7 strings. It probably does not help that I'm not really into djenty music. Because yes. It does (from my attempt).

I highly recommend getting this guitar if you are curious in trying a 8 string. Because if it is for you, then you have a truly amazing guitar at this end of the budget scale.
