PS-900 vs. Hawker?

Hi guys, I hope everybody has been fine. I haven't been around for a while.

I find myself in a position to have to sell off some guitars. A while back I bought a guitar listed as a PS-900, and I just kind of went along and listed it on Reverb as such, but now that I'm sort of looking at it and studying it more closely, I wonder if it's an old Hawker, before they went headless and the body radically changed. Only someone from here would understand what I mean by that.

Anyway, is the main difference between the two the little dimple in the bottom (back of the body), meaning the PS-900 is perfectly rounded, while the old style Hawker (with a headstock) has a little dimple at the back of the body?

Unfortunately I can't seem to attach a picture because the file is too big.

Is this a PS-900 or and older model Hawker?

From the headstock down to the pickups, it looks like my old PS-900, but I don't remember the ass of the body looking, like, well, an ass :-) Everything else looks correct. One of the Agile historians here will clear it up, I'm sure...

It should have been called the Agile Quagmire. :lol:

Nice to see you return @Buddy. :)
