Rainsongs without cutaway and electronics
Is it possible to get one of the smaller bodies without electronics and cutaway? I haven't come across one in any of my searches.

Thanks, I'll contact Ted. When I saw all of them with the same configuration I thought a custom might be a no go. Maybe adjusting their process is difficult with CF.

I don't know how experienced you are with Rainsong, but for my ears, I thought Composite Acoustic and McPherson to be better.
Just make sure you check them all out first. |

I've been asking for an OM without a cutaway for years. Apparently the moulds RainSong uses for each body type are extremely expensive. Since that is a crucial part to their processes, introducing new moulds to their lineup would never justify the means.

A non-cutaway spruce-top Vintage or Nashville would be nice....

Don’t think you will find getting a custom CF from McPherson possible and I’ve never seen custom shapes from CA.

I had a similar question a few years ago which is why I ended up with a Blackbird Lucky 13 with no electronics over Rainsong. They stopped making these a year or two ago, but you might be able to pick one up used as I see them for sale occasionally. I don't plan to sell mine anytime soon though.

Having just bought a RainSong...There is very little customization possible...
The Wolf note it has aside, the playability and sound is amazing...I have a replacement unit coming in a couple weeks that the I pray does not have the same wolf note problems... Love the size and feel of this guitar

No electronics is easy.
You cannot get a custom shape. (Well, I suppose you could, but a new aluminum mold for a new body shape is well over $50,000).
