My main guitar I have now is a '96 USRG30, which I purchase used. This is hands down the best guitar that I have owned. Unfortunately, it's also out of production.
I am curious as to whether it would be possible to build a copy from the ground up. To do so, I need to know the following things.
1) Who makes RG style bodies for sale? Can you get them with AANJ?
2) Where can you buy NEW Lo-Pro Edge trems without breaking the law?
3) Does anyone know if Bunker Guitars, the current maker of the tension-free necks, will make them with the Ultra profile like the one on my USRG?
This last point is important, as I absolutely love the tension free necks, and have decided that I want one on any new guitar I buy or build. If I wanted a standard construction neck, I would just cruise around on E-Bay for a Prestige series RG.
