Are there any affordable headless 8 string guitars?

I really want a headless 8 string guitar, I've found one, but it's from Ali Express. It seems very good. It has stainless steel frets, multiscale, sandblasted body, etc (its a Mc Tang guitar). I've never bought of Ali Express, but it seems to have very positive reviews.

Are there any headless 8 string guitars for £600 or less. I'd like to spend about £500 to £600 and then upgrade to fishman or emg pickups. Is £600 too little for an 8 string guitar? Should I spend more? Or should I just get an 8 string guitar with a headstock?

Are Mc tang guitars good?

I've seen these guitars online they are £500 and have very good reviews and seem very well made. They have very high-grade specs that you would usually see in guitars for over £1000. Have you ever played one? Is it worth it?

They have stainless steel frets, 25.5" to 27" scale length, push pull pots for coil splitting, it has an ash wood body that had been sandblasted. And it's a headless 8 string.

Are Mc tang guitars good?

I've recently seen an 8 string multiscale guitar on Ali Express. It looks great, and all the reviews are good and say it sounds great. I'm just wondering if anyone has bought one or played one? Is it worth it? I'm obviously not expecting it to play like a Strandberg since it's only £550. But the specs seem good, it has stainless steel frets, push-pull pots, sandblasted finish on an ash wood body, headless, 25.5"-27" scale length, etc. Is the guitar good for the price?
