Maybe this can be an alternative to Agile's AL3200 guitars, mainly compared on the neck heel option.

Firefly doesn't offer several finishes to choose, but this one in particular doesn't look bad.

It also has the first fret block inlay.

For less than half the price of an Agile.

@LightWingStudios Patrick is very happy with the "few" he has snagged over the last couple of years.


Just a random thought.

Here's the link for more pictures.

The quality of Chinese made guitars, especially the brands that have had some success such as Firefly or Grote, is astounding (for the price) these days. Yes, maybe the pickups are not the best in the market and you might have to polish the frets when you get it but these days many of these guitars are being made in the same factories by the same techs that make Epiphones and other big name brands.

Looks interesting. I owned a 3200 at one point, but it was so heavy, I let it go. That belly carve is a plus. I wonder if it’s full thickness like an LP.

The AL3000 I had I believe was on the heavy side too. I believe everybody here in AGF knows how crazy I am for either 3200 model (AL or AD), but honestly, they are really heavy but in my wallet haha. It's really a long shot. Even this Firefly option it's out of consideration.

This Firefly LPs seems to be a nice option as a platform to build upon - you know, what everybody usually upgrade: PUs, pots, tuners, nut, etc. -.

I do like the neck heel and the belly carve - shouldn't it be called "rib carve" really? -.
