well it's an agile, their Tier III guitars.

But yeah... still seems a bit high. Might just be the headstock snob in me.

if i saw it in a store at that price and could test it out, i probably wouldn't have an issue, but unplayed/unseen rondo from the internet its a bit much, but yeah that could also be headstock snob

but oddly if it was a 72 harmony i'd snatch it in a heart beat

The Agiles are made in Korea and are quite nice. They're a great value compared to the lower-end fenders and epiphones.

I'll echo all that's been said already.

Looks great but the price is potentially a bit steep. Looks far hotter with the Bigsby, but price would obviously rise significantly if it had one.

They could put a cheap ass copy bridge on? Theyre like £30-50

Companies like indie do that

i think i ended up paying around $400-500 for an agile harm 12 string, aside from being neck heavy it is a FANTASTIC guitar. i've only heard good things about their les paul copy's. and would definitely consider it against an epiphone.

Why didn'y they put a bigsby on it? They put them on other guitars.

maybe to keep costs down.

No one would buy it if it was 50-100 more.

Since it has a trapese on it do you think you could put a B7 on? Is there enough room?

don't see why not.

And who cares about the extra screw holes... it's an agile!

that would be my guess too, i still ponder buying more agiles, they really make some cool guitars that are of very respectable quality. i still want to see a 30" scale SJM.
