Re: Agile and Essex Guitars?
sorry dude, no photo flame. maybe a veneer like jackson uses, but not photo flame over fiber board. i'll post another picture later of the top at the horn where the maple cap comes below the binding. the inlays may not be real abalone, but paper under plastic? more likely ablam, or another synthetic shell material. the inlays are rather small and ablam/synthetic sheets aren't that expensive...
now i won't argue the wood grade...but the weight is right.
and what's wrong with having cheap guitars every now and then, especially if they are actually decent? is the agile as nice as my PC-1? no, of course not (but for the $$$ I paid for the PC-1 the top could be a bit thicker and more figured)...but you know what, the agile stays in tune, looks just as beautiful, doesn't feedback at stage volume (100% stock, too), and actually gets used for a (yes only 1 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]) song during our set.
try it, you may like it...if not, hype it up as being EXACTLY like a Les Paul and sell it for what you paid.
