Special features are special finish with red body binding and the carved clear pickguard which is purely cosmetic since the pickups are direct mount and the controls back-routed. Other features include a basswood body, Wizard II neck, Ibanez V7 and V8 pickups and the Edge III tremolo. Another 2008 Spring Special model was the RGR08LTD, also with a Japan-related theme. The SRX08LTD is a bass guitar similar to the RG08LTD.
