FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU that is gorgeous!!! I wish they still had passives since I was hoping the second Agile 7 I get could at least be relatively different from my Interceptor. Fuckin' awesome that they have real Hipshots though!! Also cool is that the Blackout version is the same price too.

If these came in Nat Ash with passives I wouldn't need to even consider their custom shop. :lol:

I'm sooo tempted by these. I'd like to try the blackouts out too, and I'm a sucker for a fixed bridge. Any idea how long these kind of things usually stay in stock? I can see myself getting one if they are still going in a fortnight and if I can keep from spending much in the time being.

Fuckkkk, that's awesome! I've always wanted an Agile 7 with a fixed bridge that wasn't a TOM. Those Hipshot bridges are way more comfortable IMO. Why does Rondo always have to put out cool shit as soon as I blow all my money on new gear?:wallbash:

That's fucking sweet. I'm definitely thinking of getting one. I used to hate the TOM models and can't stand LFRs. Just need the 25.5" scale. The EMGs can be easily swapped out for a pair of concealed passives.

:yesway:

weird price on that left handed model.
For the same price, even cheaper I think you can get a septor pro righty which is neck-thru, comes with a longer scale and possibly better pickups... wish the prices were set accordingly, because that septor left handed model is too expensive.

i know that's weird huh? plus the description is off. it says neck-thru, but the pic clearly shows a bolt on. that happens alot on Rondo though.

The red septor is a bolt on, the black is neckthrough, like regular Septor pros, but yeah, incorrect specs is par for the course with Rondo.
I expect there is a general price hike looming and this is the first we're seeing of it.

That said, a purple maple septor elite, might be a compulsory purchase.

I wish they still had passives since I was hoping the second Agile 7 I get could at least be relatively different from my Interceptor.
I've got a septor pro 725 with EMGs and it sounds wildly different than the Interceptor pro I used to own. Much harder and edgier.

Really pissed that they didn't use the passive sized Blackouts for Duncan model. I mean really, WTF? :wallbash::wallbash::scratch::spock:

why does everyone still complain about the emgs in them?
Does anyone not know that you can just buy emg-sized housing and put the passive pickups there?

Dammit Rondo music, you keep making it progressively harder to resist my GAS for your guitars. I can justify to the wife another guitar since I am waiting for the outcome of the Emperions and they keep producing all the models I was saying that I would only buy. For example, I didn't want EMG's but rather the blackouts in a guitar, they made models with blackouts. I liked the Ghost model but was not so ok with the headstock and to a lesser extend wanted a longer scale, they fixed the headstock. I said to myself ok next guitar would be with a fixed bridge because I don't use the Floyds that much, they give us the one with EMG's and hipshot bridge. Sigh, what's a man got to do? Roooooooooooooooooooooondoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

$725?

What's with the price jump?

Im guessing it's partially due to it being the first Agile 7 with a real Hipshot bridge as standard.

...Which also makes it the only production 7 with a Hipshot bridge. :hbang:
