Well to each his own. I have never feel any mojo with gibson at ANY price level for example. But a pristine (with no relic) randy rr1t is the perfect guitar for me.
I had these three in the past. Alexi 600, dv8r and dv200. I have a very fond memory with the alexi 600. I thought I gona have to buy the one with an emg hz that I didn't like. But at the last minute when I went to the store with my father I checked that it was a seymour duncan blackout. So lucky...
The same amount of people that buy gibsons because they smell like vainilla. Also I don't like to theorize about guitar nor do I smell them. Just play the thing. If I like how they sound I keep it. If not I continue searching
About trussrodless guitars. In spanish speaking countries we call that the soul of the guitar "el alma de la guitarra". So why would you want a guitar without a soul?.
