Members Zman9001 Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 Hey all, after weeks of research and a little penny pinching, I've ordered the Agile ST-1000 from Rondo... Pics when I get 'em! http://www.rondomusic.net/st1000.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noak Posted May 15, 2006 Members Share Posted May 15, 2006 Looks great! I like that it has a Wilkinson trem, they are the best. This one was a different model to their standard ones but I bet it's great too...Make sure to let us know what it's like once you got it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Zman9001 Posted May 22, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 22, 2006 Well, it came this morning via FedEx:The rest of the pics are too big:I couldnt have asked for a better Agile. Any problem Ive ever heard anyone having with Agile is completely non-existant on this guitar. The nut is perfect, its intonated great, frets are (perfectly) dressed and leveled. All the screws are tight, everything works. All I had to do was tighten the truss rod about 1/8 of a turn, lower a couple saddles, tune it up, and wail away! And the strap buttons on this thing are HUGE!! After furthur revision: One of the knobs was rubbing a pup sdjustment screw so I sanded it down about .5mm so its good now. The trem claw is gonna need tightened a bit on the next string change. The nut COULD be filed a tiny bit but Ill probably just leave it. To me these are just a few minor adjustments that go along with almost any new guitar so Im pretty happy with it!Next up is the Tele or maybe that baritone that they just added!

Members ZakkWyldesLP Posted May 22, 2006 Members Share Posted May 22, 2006 Like it, the pearl plate on the grey works very well indeed. By the way, are Agile the next big thing?? A la Yamaha Pacifica? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members arcadiandj Posted May 22, 2006 Members Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hope you enjoy. I love my 802 which I've had for over a year now-no problems to report. Your tremolo looks different. How does yours work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Justin Suitts Posted May 24, 2006 Members Share Posted May 24, 2006 Would you compare this color to Mary Kaye? Ive always wanted a strat in that color, but could only find it on higher end fenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members B Money Posted May 25, 2006 Members Share Posted May 25, 2006 wrong bridge on that ST-1000. Maybe the Wilkenson isn't available left-handed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GRANKOR Posted May 25, 2006 Members Share Posted May 25, 2006 It looks like a 2 point vintage bridge, like comes on the Custom Shop Classic Player Strats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes unfortunatly the WVP2 is not available in lefty, I wish they had that on the site. I still would have bought it I was just looking forward to that trem. Its a 2 point Wilkinson, other than that?????? And yes it is different from yours Arcadian but I dont know in what way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
