I was starting to think I'd dreamed that beast. But it's real, isn't it.

Nightmare.

Gibson Goldtop -- that's two 'G's and the wrong colour. i can feel your revulsion from here, Conway

LOL, yes indeed!

To be fair, I do admire your tolerance.

My old R9. Sold it but it's nice so I'll post a pic anyway.

For me, thats about as good as it gets.

Cheers SB, you just made my day

That R7 does look great.What pickups? Those aren't Gibson covers from what I can tell.

Here's another take on an R7 - ex RSole above.

Shouldn't you be somewhere else, like http://swimmingpools.com/ ?

And in a similar vein, an old R4 ('73)...but possibly blurring the technicalities of "R" series.

R7 with Z90s. Perfection imho. This is a 95 early Yamano import. Ive had it for ages.

I'm wondering if it's a byproduct of the wraptail humbucker combination. My R4 Oxblood is the same and while I've never found a wraptail with P90's to be particularly aggressive maybe the piano like twang with the extra pu juice is what does it. Scary through anything Marshallesque, tameable through other amps..

Just sayin'. Change those pickups immediately.
