I believe that you are incorrect on one point: G&L will make a replacement neck for you. However, they do require that you send them your existing body & neck.
Contact your local dealer, they can give you the details.

I know that they are not available through G&L.
I need to know the years and sizes that are compatible.
Obviously 4-bolt #1 2010s, however, would all of the 2010 Legacy necks #1-#4 fit?
If anyone has a maple fretboard neck with the satin finish for a Legacy I would like to either buy it outright or trade my rosewood/satin for it. It is an aesthetic preference for the body color of my Legacy I would like to improve upon.
I have also considered buying another Legacy with a maple fretboard/satin neck that would look fine with a rosewood neck to swap them out, again I need to know which years to look at and if the neck size matters.
Craig is there a 25" radius neck made by G&L or is this a typo in the Knowledgebase?

Historically as early as 1980, G&L has offered neck options on its guitars and basses. The options on the F-100 included fingerboard radius (7.5- or 12-inch) and fingerboard wood (ebony or maple). The 12-inch radius was a no-cost option on all G&L guitars (except the student SC series) beginning in 1982 and 1983.
In 1984, three neck options were offered:
#1 (1 5/8 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 12-inch radius)
#2 (1 5/8 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 7.5-inch radius)
#3 (1 3/4 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 12-inch radius)
From 1986 to 1991, the options were expanded to:
#1 (1 5/8 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 12-inch radius)
#2 (1 5/8 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 7.5-inch radius)
#3 (1 3/4 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 12-inch radius)
#4 (1 3/4 inch nut width, 2 13/64 inch butt width, 25-inch radius)
#5 (1 3/4 inch nut width, 2 21/64 inch butt width, 25-inch radius)
The #1, 2, 3, and 4 necks were no-cost options and the #5 was a $25 special order.
Beginning in 2009, G&L has expanded their neck shape offerings. See the Option pages for details on G&L's main website.

So, that's the deal.
