Cosmic Blue RG1527 Prestige loaded w/SD Invader bridge and Jazz neck.
Vampire Kiss RG7620 loaded w/EMG 707-81 bridge and 707 neck.
was there much of a difference between those two guitars besides the price?
The neck on the RG1527 is about 2mm wider at the 24th fret. It has an Edge Pro trem while the RG7620 uses the Lo Pro Edge trem. Both trems are excellent. Both have basswood bodies. That particular 1527 neck has a skunk stripe (bubinga) on the back while the 7620 doesn't. The newer 1527s have 5 pc necks (maple/bubinga/wenge/bubinga/maple).
Used the 7620 sells for about $350-400 (stopped production in '99) on ebay while the 1527 is about $550-700 (This is the last year of the RG1527 as it is now - next year it will have a different trem).
