One of the best, BEST guitars I've ever played was an agile baritone with upgraded pickups.

They have some really cool looking guitars, wish we had more stuff like this around. Decently priced and seems like they have some good quality guitars to offer.
Is there any other site like this?
I'm now considering selling one my Epiphone's to buy one of those Agiles AL.

I've always been happy with my Rondo purchases. I still have an Agile 3100 and a SJM '57 (nka Liquid). Best bang for the buck you can get.

When you press the accelerator past halfway it doesn’t actually go any faster, but the engine noise distorts

I guess she still had it, and my daughter swooped in with the hook up. Then the same week, I found another on marketplace for $75 with a hardshell case (i'd been looking to replace mine for nearly 10 years.)

I'm going to refinish the LPB into a pink shortscale Mark Hoppus bass. Stay chuned.

EDIT: yes, i need to find another SUCKO sticker, which is proving difficult. :oops:

This sounds like enough of a niche to be a nice little side-earner: Expensive stickers of obscure cartoon characters from the '80s-90s for our fellow manchildren to waste money on to stave off the anxiety and responsibility of spending the surfeit of money that comes with the mid-points of their careers.

something playable without virtually any investment/mod'ing after purchase as it's only going to be for recording, and i'd rather not put more into it than it's worth.

you have linkage? that'd be dandy if you see something that fits.

I’ve been a primary bassist since about 1995, and picked up a Squier Bronco last year, and absolutely love playing it.
When buying the salesperson asked about extended warranty and I told her I intended to mod it, but getting it home, I honestly don’t want to change anything about it. There are tweaks I could make, or upgrades, but it def doesn’t need any.

that's one on my list to check out. so simple and straightforward... as long as it's a player, it's probably a winner.
