Are these the ones you are referring to?
If so, those are the new Invader and Invader XL, for details see: January 25, 2018-present G&L U.S. Specifications & Options
As I recall there was a Legacy HSS RMC in the booth:
Hope this helps.

Here is the listing from that link:Invader (Note: G&L website spec page not yet available)

As you can see there are no neck options available.
Yes, they are new, with the "S" body style and new pickups. The past Invader and Invader XL models (1997 - January 2017) were discontinued in February 2017.
They can be ordered now; contact your local G&L dealer for pricing and ordering.
Hope this helps.
