Re: Agile AL-2000
I'm very happy with my Agile Valkyrie II. Got it on closeout for $99 + shipping. Requires no upgrades at all.

I've bought two guitars from Kurt and am about to buy a third in the next week.

Re: Agile AL-2000
I just ordered my 3rd guitar from Kurt @ Rondo Music. This time I ordered an SX Strat. I want to see if what I have heard is true...that the SX guitars are very close to the Agile in in quality. I also was intrigued by the particular Strat that I ordered. It's solid mahogany with two P-90 pickups and a stop tail instead of a tremolo. Sounds kinda like a Frankenstrat and I'm anxiously awaiting delivery. I'm always wanted to replace a Strat that I had many years ago, but I just don't use a temolo and have always hated the inherent problem of staying in tune that accompanies them. Having the stop tail similar to an LP should fill the bill. I have no idea what to expect out of the P-90's but it should be interesting. The solid mahogany body should give it a good sustain. It has a maple neck and maple fretboard, which I've always liked. All in all, this guitar should be a hoot! We'll see in a couple of days when it gets here. I'll report back with what I find out. I'm expecting a guitar with the characteristics and sound of an LP and the look of a Strat. :jumpgrin:

Re: Agile AL-2000
Wow, I've never heard of this company before. I've been wanting to get a telecaster with a rosewood fretboard for a long time now, and I'm wondering if Rondo Music offers a tele style guitar like that which would be of good quality... :confused:

Re: Agile AL-2000
Rondo Music does carry several versions of a Tele in both SX and in Agile brands. Check them out.

Re: Agile AL-2000
What's cool about RondoMusic is they're always putting new stuff up. With that said, I could only find one tele-style with rosewood.
http://www.rondomusic.com/stl62bsb.html SX are okay, it's their lower line. It's $110 guitar, so I wouldn't expect too much. |
Re: Agile AL-2000
I actually found a Douglas version of a telecaster with a rosewood fingerboard! I was wondering if this would be of decent quality? :confused:

Re: Agile AL-2000
I'm not familiar with Douglas, but I'd buy it just on Rondo's reputation. I think Kurt would make you happy one way or another.
Here is another option, this place also has an excellent reputation. http://store.guitarfetish.com/ |

That's a nice looking axe btw, I love the wood grain with red. Looks sharp. I bought an $89 SX from Rondo and it was decent for my niece. Of course the tuners, pickups, pots weren't that of high quality and it needed a set-up, but overall it was decent. I'm thinking Douglas is a step up from SX and Agile is a step up from Douglas. |
