« Agile LP-2500 »
Published on 01/08/11 at 15:00I believe I have the model right. It is a glossy black finished guitar with gold hardware and 2 gold humbuckers. Basically a copy of a Gibson Les Paul Custom.
I bought this right out of Kurt's shop when he was still at Rondo Music in Union NJ off of Rt. 22. I walked in there, played just about every Les Paul in the store and this one spoke to me. I believe it was $250.
The thing plays, feels and sounds like a real Les Paul! While we are being positive, my wallet thanks Agile as well. $250 is much easier to drop than $2500. I will not tell you this guitar is better than the real thing. If I'm honest I'd give it about a 6, but hey I like it.
None what so ever. I did replace the cheaper pots, jack and switch in this. To be honest I didn't really even give them much of a chance, but they are a bit puny looking and I thought I'd beef them up with some better quality hardware.
Solid. One thing that stands out is the set neck instead of the common bolt on which is used for most of the Les Paul Copies. The finish has held up great, the gold hardware is still gold. The frets are still in great shape and the thing plays in tune.
If you are like me and grew up lusting over a Les Paul, but can't seem to merit dropping the big bucks, this guitar will hold you over. I have played shows and recorded with it. No complaints at all. A TON of guitar for your dollar!
