The Exacta model is an exact duplicate of the guitar that was built for whatever Rockstar or celebrity that that particular model was named for. For example the Rick Derringer Exacta is always a red sunburst double cutaway model, The Leslie West Exacta is always a certain body shape with certain pickups but because Leslie has so many of them there are no color restrictions. The one that Eddie has is a Yellow Blister Quilt over a Basswood body with a Transtrem and slightly modified Black/backs, His is the only one that comes standard in a maple Pakkawood fretboard over a graphite neck. Buck Dharma's Model is always a Teal Blister Quilt with a Trans trem etc etc.

LSR went on to build and design a number of original designs and a number of one of a kind familiar shapes. Some of these familiar shapes happened simply because a customer might request a "Custom guitar with a body loosely resembling a Rickenbacker or a "Custom headless guitar shaped like a Kramer.  LSR not being much more than a fairly large custom shop was able to get away with doing things that a larger company would have been sued for. 

After about 600 guitars were built several competing companies had their attorneys send cease and desist letters requesting that LSR no longer offer these certain offending models.  Leslie West, & Buck Dharma are two of the original LSR artists. Leslie even wanted to produce the guitars under his own name which only lasted a short time due to LSR's failure to be able to mass produce.  To this day all LSR Guitars are hand made and there are many body designs available that are not pictured on the web.  If we picture them we will only get a cease and desist letter, so we decided not to picture them.

LSR Virtually cornered the Steinberger market, this was done by purchasing as many bodies, necks, bridges and associated parts as possible. During Steinbergers last remaining days, the company CEO Pat Cummings was reduced to paying off debts to vendors with parts and guitars. He also paid employees with product.  Ed Roman contacted all these people and purchased all of the remaining parts in existence.  One Vendor had 26 Steinberger Guitars and boxes and boxes of  bridges & headpieces, Ed Roman even went as far as to buy all the Hohner & Cort inventory from those respective companies also. 
Ed recently contacted the company who made all the Steinberger Voodoo electronics and is now able to supply parts to fix the old models. Also there are numerous new electronic widgets available.

Gibson the owner of the name Steinberger objected heavily to the use of the Suffix "Berger".  So LSR changed the names on all the models The Ed Berger became the EB-1. It should be noted though that Ed Roman had asked the people at Gibson as far back as 1997 if they had any problems with him using the suffix Berger. At that time they did not seem to care. I was only after an extremely successful NAMM Show appearance and press releases being issued that Gibson objected. 

LSR EB-1

This is the original LSR Guitar,  This is the one the line was conceived behind. Today 7 years later there are over 75 different body shapes and climbing, The headless neck design lends itself extremely well to almost any shape and design.

Custom Inlays are available

LSR Jewel

The Jewel is without a doubt one of the most beautiful guitars ever produced. It is also just as functional as any of the LSR other headless style guitars.
