Agile electric guitars: My favorite budget brand under $400

?I was turned on to these guitars by a couple of friends that were blown away with the quality on these budget guitars. This brand of guitars really changed my perception on the price versus quality argument. These are Korean made and that brings the price point down and they are also only sold by Rondo music on E-bay as far as?I know.

? ALL the Agile's I've played were really put together well. No fretting problems, good straight necks, they intonate well and normally come with a bone?nut which is real cool.?They use quality woods, hardware and their pickups aren't half bad either. I normally am a snob about all guitar mfrs. pickups and change them out as soon as I can but these pickups really do sound good. Basically the product line are copies of Gibson, Fender, and PRS guitars. They also have several other varieties of guitars that are?worth checking out.?Maybe they'll make a Rickenbacker 12 string copy and I'll nab one!

? I would strongly encourage all players to check these out.?If your on a budget they're hard to beat but they can also appeal to a player that wants different sounding guitars for different tones. If you need a tele or PRS tone and don't want to shell out the big bucks I think you'll be impressed. Agile has many types they sell and a huge product range. I believe these are the BEST guitars for money when you?factor in?the wide product line .

? The higher end models are the ones I suggest. They simply have better electronics and tone woods. It's amazing when you record these guitars thru a quality tube amp.? Just remember this: When you hear that great tone?coming from your tracks?you can't see the name on the headstock

    Forget about the price 'cause everyone says "for the money this is a great guitar." In a scale o 1-10, putting money aside, how would you rate the high end 500 Agiles?
