Agile Acoustic 8s Back in Stock

[Sponge]

YES! And in a lefty. I want one so bad!

Yes, and .... yes. (bleeped out the f word with "..." )

Kurt, I have ordered 4 customs, a 6 string banjo, a 725 Sentinel, the AL-830 lefty ordered a few years ago, an AL2000 with FR from Rondo. I would definitely order a classical and/or multiscale 8 string acoustic if left handed. Feel free to PM.

Lefty straight scale due in late Jan or early Feb 2015 - multi scale lefty will be a bit longer...

That's awesome, thanks for the heads up, Kurt.

Is there any desire to see a classical version? 7 string? 8 string? Multi scale or straight scale?:

I'd definitely be interested in a classical 7, either straight or multiscale, preferably with a pickup.

[dudeskin]

id kill for a multiscale 8 with pickup, than would fit rather nicely. please thank you haha

 

[MF_Kitten]

classical guitars do lower tunings better on shorter scale lengths, which is nice.

I was lucky enough to scoop up one of the multiscales. Nice guitar, but I wish I had a case for it.

The strings it shipped with were OK, but I put some Elixir acoustic strings on and it's much more to my liking now. Also, I swapped the low strings out for non-tapered strings (I *hate* tapered strings on guitar or bass... there's something weird going on with overtones when the taper crosses the bridge). I had to feed the strings through from the inside of the acoustic (I used Elixir acoustic bass strings with larger ball ends), and unwrap the 0.80 low E, but it sounds so much tighter now. I'm hopefully going to shoot a little video demoing it while I'm on winter break.

Pics God Dammit or it didn't happen.

I have money set aside for one if they deliver on a lefty model.

 

[GenghisCoyne]

Was that .080 PB or NW? I can't find a PB in that size.

 

[octatoan]

Shipping for me is nearly equal to the price.

Cool, thanks. Looks like I have to decide between .080" and .100". I'll have to give them a shot!

FWIW, the 80 is plenty fine for me, in terms of tension on this thing. I'd imagine the 100 would be too dull sounding and stiff.

FYI, They're down to $400 a piece, and there's one of each of the parallel fret versions left:
