Anyone here got one? I'm gasing for one of their PRS hollow body copy, those just looks incredible and got rave reviews.

All mahogany, set neck, 24 3/4" scale.
419$ on eBay US

I'd love one of those but in the Ric 620 / 650 body shape, and without the inlays.

Beautiful finish on the wood (though too fancy for me)

they look nice like rob said... but bit too fancy for me also... how expensive are they?

They look pretty nice and I'm surprised at the prices.

Unfortunitely Rickenbacker tend to hunt down anybody who gets too close to their body shapes, so a semi 620 is out of the question, but imagine this body shape http://homer.netmar.com/~muscon2/r552.jpg but in the semi hollow, purple burst (chequered binding ofcourse).

well I can dream

Most of their products are in the US400$ price range.

Aren't they similar in price/quality range to brands like Agile and Dillion? I've read a fair number of positive reviews (e.g. on Harmony Central) about all three; made in Korea, if memory serves me right.

If I get another guitar in the near future I'll probably get one of these.

As I've read on HC, RWG are a bit better quality than Agile (not by much) and the same as Dillion. Dillion is overpriced to death (at least on eBay they are) and Agile are such a pain in the ass to get from over here (Rondo won't sell outside US/Canada on eBay, you have to use their website, I'm lazy :lol: )
So RWG is perfect for me :)
I'm also gasing for one of their Les Paul DC copy :
