I have one. That's the one that has the fret issues I posted about.

 

 

That's what I imagined when you mentioned the P90s. Besides the issue you're having with the frets, how do you feel about the guitar? BTW, I agree all Teles should have a maple board and do you think a Fender neck will fit in the pocket?

There was also an issue with sharp fret ends. That one doesn't particularly bother me but I know it's a deal-breaker for some so I feel it should be mentioned.

 

Other than those two fret deals it really is a fairly nice guitar and like I said, I've gigged with that one stock quite a few times. There's only three electric guitars in my arsenal that I regularly gig with that are bone stock: that RWG Tele, a Gibson SG '61 reissue and a Gibson LP Classic.

fret ends are pretty sharp on mine as well.

there are all kinds of directions and vids on fret filing if you have sharp ones,, you may have to buck-up for a couple decent files,, but patience and taping the surrounding area ,,, you can file all 22 in a couple hours, If you can save 200 and just spend a afternoon on them go for it,;)

My left handed RWG lefty spalted maple RG6500 is a great playing & sounding guitar. The pickups were surprisingly good. I put an original Floyd Rose in as the only upgrade. Love the neck thru design. I also dig the tree of life inlay & the satin finish. Cant go wrong for the price, I paid $230 & worth every penny.

I have been reading the reviews of the RWG Guitars, and for the most part I agree with what I have read. I LOVE this RM300MAC I recently purchased, the sound is great, although I am playing it through a Bass Amp right now, the tones and the rich deep sound is really awesome. I can't wait until I can actually do this thing justice and start playing it more.
