*** GONE Agile AL2000 Black / Gold with Floyd Rose - TRADED ***

Once again another Agile. I bought this one used from an ebayer who lived close by. I have always wanted to have a Les Paul with a Floyd on it and here it is. I think Agile has done a fantastic job with the AL2000 model too. This guitar looks awesome and plays very well too. I will probably end up changing the pickups to the 3000 Alnico V's. There is such a difference in the output of these that I would have to change my rig quite a bit to go between guitars. But overall this is a very cool guitar. The slanted set neck is really a great idea and makes it so easy to get up to the upper frets. This guy even comes with 24 frets!

Die-cast Grover tuners with 18-1 ratio for ultra fine tuning
Full body, neck and headstock binding
Jumbo 2.7mm frets and a 13.7" (350mm) radius neck for "fast" play

Wax potted humbucker pickups for improved sound
Two volume & two tone controls and a 3-way pickup selector switch help you find your sound

*** GONE - Hamer USA Standard Custom - TRADED ***

*** GONE - Samick Avion 3 - TRADED ***

I like some of the Greg Bennett Guitars. I have two Samicks and I like them both. They seem to be pretty sturdy guitars. Not bad for the price. There are some places where you can see where they cut back on quality, but overall not bad at all for what you pay for them.

*** GONE - Samick Rockwell 2 - TRADED ***

This is my other Samick. Cool body style. You can't tell well from the picture, but it's a very cool purple quilt.
