I'll pass if I can't find a used one for cheaper than that price range. With the way the selling market is now I figured they were going cheaper than that. I know 6 months or so ago you could find them for around $2000 fairly often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fretless Posted December 14, 2012 Members Share Posted December 14, 2012 yeah they make some stunning guitars though , in the price range some real lookers . I'd be afraid to take it out of the house though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LIBBY! Posted December 15, 2012 Members Share Posted December 15, 2012 Plaintops might be found for $2250, anything with flame will cost you $2800 at least. Why R8? I gigged one for a bit, neck is really thick on those, too big for me. R7s are the same axe, cheaper though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really interested in another flame top guitar. I prefer the plain tops on Gibson Les Pauls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does look good and actually the color I love but no pickguard, unknown pickups, USA case over Historic case, no COA. Those things are minor to me personally but they do make a resell value difference IMO if I ever looked to sell down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with Agiles. Just not what I'm looking for right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
