Members cratz2 Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 I actually just saw that for the first time yesterday. Pretty cool for what it is, but if I were to get an Agile, I'd get the Root Beer 3100 with the 1.75" nut and the MOP vs Abalone inlays. I don't care about what it says on the headstock, but I don't want to get a 10lb LP. Somewhere right around 8.5lbs and I start to lose interest.

Members GAS Man Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 To me those look pointless and ugly. I'm always happy to find that rare guitar that doesn't spark my GAS jets. Fixed here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kulardenu Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 Not fond of goldtops at all. I'd go with Rootbeer anything but would like that with black or dk brown pick-guard & pup rings. Is it me or does Rondo have the absolute worst website for navigation? Where's a stinking search feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if I get ever get a Rootbeer LP from then, I'll ditch the pickguard entirely and probably put on black rings and probably install a set of zebra Dimarzios I have on hand.

Members kayd_mon Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 Is it me or does Rondo have the absolute worst website for navigation? Where's a stinking search feature? I agree. I don't even see separate links to Agile, Douglas, SX, etc., which would only make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scolfax Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 ...if I were to get an Agile, I'd get the Root Beer 3100 with the 1.75" nut... Is that the standard Gibson LP nut width? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tiltsta Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 Gibsons have a 1.695" nut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cratz2 Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 Is that the standard Gibson LP nut width? Nope, it's about 1mm wider than standard Gibson width. I'm not as much concerned with the wider nut as having MOP rather than abalone inlays. The abalone is a bit over the top for my tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members *BLEEP* Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 I really do think they made a mistake making this an archtop. It should have been a flattop without the angled neck (and the required T-O-M bridge and stop tailpiece). It's really just an obese Junior.

Members Jarick Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 Not a fan of single pickup guitars really. I also don't like the look of P90's on carved body guitars for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tiltsta Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 I kind of like the single LP p90 look better on a black guitar, like on this custom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cratz2 Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 I usually don't go for single pickup guitars either, but I think my next next next project is going to be to build up something as close to this as possible, including the color. Not sure if I'd prefer an HB or the P90 though I'm leaning towards an HB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vcnyls Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 I kind of like the single LP p90 look better on a black guitar, like on this custom. There's one of those on Ebay that I've been drooling over for the past few days. Basically a super fancified LP Junior, but damn, it's sexy!

Members GreaserMatt Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 What do the headstocks look like? That is def a dealbreaker for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BeanoBoy Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 That's taking it down to the bare bones. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members artiem Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 How come single pickup guitars always go with a bridge pickup? That tends to kill my interest, 'cause I'm mostly a neck pickup guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JoeBoy Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 I had the 3 P90 2500 with the same config as this. Great guitar, but it was 11 lbs. It actually broke a strap once and bounced and slapped down on the headstock. It lost some of it's goldtop that night. It was stolen a year ago. To me those look pointless and ugly. I'm always happy to find that rare guitar that doesn't spark my GAS jets. Fixed here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were a flat top and thinner, I'd probably like it. For some reason though, I do like the looks of it better on that black Custom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
