Did Paul Reed Smith ever build guitars for US Music Corp 1986 to 1989?

[Bigcity2]

Hello all....new to this forum. Many...many sellers of the Washburn RS-10V and the RS-8V have claimed that Paul Reed Smith built these models for U.S. Music Corp. (Washburn) from 1986 to 1989.

I'm reasonably sure that PSR never had a relationship with U.S. Music Corp. I just wanted to verify with the experts here at the PRS forum.

Thanks for your input

No, he was quite busy setting up and running his own new company...

Any links to these claims?

Well, there are the catalogs, the Guitar Player stories, the ads, the histo.... Oh, you probably mean the claims about US Music Corp.

I haven't heard of that before at all.
