LTD: H-308 (body- side view)

Here's a look at the LTD H-308 body from the side. Contrary to popular belief, coping with the 8-string manifestation means re-engineering the body to a revised thickness to deal with added weight. 

Weight is a touchy issue here since the body has to keep up with the neck/ headstock offset, otherwise, the guitar would neck-dive like the proverbial Gibson SG.

But the good folks at LTD got it right, or should I say, figured out since the body isn't excessively thick in this aspect.
