They're the house brand for guitar center/ musicians friend, so probably unknown outside the US . I have their single cut, it is a very well made, nice playing and sounding instrument. Zero complaints. Mine is the ms400, which has a thicker neck compared to the ms450, which I prefer. Mine was made i...

Got too many guitars, and the thought of getting more produces more stress than the joy of getting one. I have all my bases covered and then some. When I did buy, it was mostly used, and the used market is still very high. I should be selling some, but I'm a bit too attached to the ones I have. That...

Sending AGF Mojo to all West Floridians, and here's a virtual bucket:

New forums categories are welcome.
Old forum members are welcomer.

But I vote oldgoat gets his handle officially changed to the freudian slip version.

At this price point, you might be better off with a MIM strat, though you'll have to hunt for a deal for that too. Much better resale value. Here's one for $650 shipped. https://www.adorama.com/fe0144570002.html?sdtid=15871525&sterm=S0ozzwx87xyITbvyo0WQI33oUkDwgyUpATpp3o0&utm_source=rflaid62...

If you happen to be in San Antonio, this veers in to the steal zone, at $250
Has anyone seen @peskypesky around?

I like your train of thought.
We could sell Aglie guitars, and cater exclusively to the dyslexic, the non-proof-readers, and those with fat typing fingers

I can't recall such a stock model (though Kurt will occasionally offer a batch with unusual features).
If I had to guess, it's a custom or a semi-custom.
But Kurt usually responds - and if you give him a serial number he'll be able to track it down.

https://www.mylespaul.com/threads/wasps-blackie-lawless-using-agile-on-stage.92673/ What model would that be? An Agile AD? Looks like an old AD-2500. Could only find the lefty version of the black flame on Rodno, but it looks identical, right down to the first fret block inlay. https://www.rondomus...

I find it funny that people rant about how tonewood makes no difference, but then turn abound and have to point out when a Les Paul copy has a maple cap as opposed to just being solid mahogany. I don't think there are people who hold both of those opinions simultaneously. The last part is exactly t...

Remember old agf member tsuykiyomi? is that right, somehow managed to take his burst into dirty lemon territory, I believe by extra light and careful sanding away of the top burst layer, with very fine sandpaper. The orange burst is applied over a yellow stained finish, and usually there is a clear...

They have it, they're just not willing to ship it to the US. They are willing to send it to Canada though.
Probably just weirdly labeled in their ordering system.

It's even better in US dollars, rather than your funny Canadian currency :) But I tried to checkout to see shipping cost, and got this: "Unfortunately we cannot currently offer delivery for this address" I tried it with another guitar, and that would let me ship. They used to not ship guit...

Rather than solving anything, now you'll just get more arguments about what is the best tone air. He was probably using the common Nitrogen/Oxygen combo, but did he try it on Helium? I hear Carbon-dioxide really brightens the tone.

Add a pickguard? You'll be able to hide about 20% of that burst. Replace the knobs with something more eye-catching? Or do what I did, and learn to live with it. Your burst is on the good side of CSB's, it could have been much more clown-like. Look at a bunch of old Jimmy Page photos, and think how ...

Very cool, happy NGD! I don't think I've ever been disappointed by a PRS.
How does it compare to the similarly priced Fender MIM "Player" series?

Really good deal on these single cuts from GC. Reminiscent of PRS SC or ESP ltd ec-256, but for a fraction of the price. 3 finishes are going for $199, one for $249. You can probably get them price matched at MF and get 8% back in MF points. https://www.guitarcenter.com/Mitchell/MS450-Shallow-Body-S...

I think you mean Lady and Gentlemen.

Welcome back LM!

OK, the fourth one of the pre-order is now up so that should be it. Kurt also raised the price on what I assume is the last of the lot to $170. I paid $150 and the one @honyock bought was $125. I don't recall what the price of the second one was. He probably could have gotten more for them but I as...

Do you have pictures of the wires you got and the pickups you have?
Ideally, it should just be about matching colors.

The entire lot must have been bad. It's a little scary that all of them were passed by the factory QA. If I were Kurt, it would be "Lucyyyy, you got some splainin' to do"... So many questions... Does he QA them himself? I thought he was more of a ship-it-and-let-the-customer-QA-it type of...

Not me, I thought about it but hoped someone would step up and save me the time and expense.

Another one is up now...

Our friend Kurt put up a C-stock Valkyrie. Bridge is set a little too far. Any chance this is a problem at, or fixable at the nut itself or nut slot? Hard to know with Kurt. His descriptions are often wrong, and we don't know how long he spent analyzing the issue. But assuming it is a bridge that w...

If you're a lefty, and little handy, this is a great deal. Our friend Kurt put up a C-stock Valkyrie. Bridge is set a little too far. Might be fixable with a wider bridge, or by redrilling bridge position. $125 + Shipping. https://www.rondomusic.com/product10918.html There are also a few sets of Gro...
