On a scale of 1 to 10, I would say an exact copy would be 9.9999999999999 without the correct machinery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The difference between EVO and FLO originally was that FLO had a fretboard 57mm width at the body end and EVO has a 56mm width. Also, the JEM AANJ neck is slightly deeper at 21.whatever mm, rather than 19mm at the 1st fret.
I would not recommend buying any RG series guitar because the neck dimensions are too thin and would not give such a comfortable feel.
The upside of making your own guitar is that it would be lighter in weight and you can choose your own woods.
EVO timbers - alder body with basswood cap.
FLO timbers - 2 or 3 piece basswood.
The Ibanez Edge is used on the RG550 standard model not Deluxe.
