Are there any other fiddles with this headstock?

What model would that be? An Agile AD?

Everyone knows about WASP’s debut and Crimson Idol, etc., but I REALLY liked Dominator from 2007. Songs like Mercy, Heaven’s Hung in Black, and Long, Long Way to Go get my head banging.

That does look an awful lot like an Agile.

Way back when on the old forum, someone had a pic of Blackie playing an Agile. He was the lone "famous player" we had that could be seen with one.

You know, aside from this guy.....

It has been too long since a little "Walk in the Night Air" on AGF.

Looks close, but I don't think it is an Agile. It has square inlays. An Agile would have the trapezoid inlays. I saw this headstock on some other brand recently. Whatever is was and Agile are both probably made in the same factory.
My playing is always better after some good beer

My Agile has block inlays, and some of the AD models did too.

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.

AFAIK, I was the first person to order custom block inlays. After I did, they released stock models including them.

We should start a guitar distribution co named Rodno.

D&D was the peak of AGF. Never once achieved the same engagement. Heck, this place was completely dead at a couple posts a day until a few weeks ago that you and I started driving real discussions again. But, life goes on.

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 :)
