Seeking interest in Agile AL 7 (production)

[cyril v]

I chose 25", but I really wouldn't mind 24.75 or 25.5".

 

[Overt1]

take an AL2k, 3k, or 3.1k and add a string, some additional finishes, done. additional features (emgs, 25+ scales, floyds, hipshots, neck thrus, etc.) should come AFTER

Lets start thinking about finishes, I'm going to wait until I get back from the beach (Friday), and then put up a 2nd poll with Finish options, and the other stuff I left off.

I would personally love a Goldtop

(Ignore P90s)

 

[AgileLefty]

^ + 1

perhaps keep it simple and traditional for the first run with only a few color options?

tobacco burst
goldtop
silverburst

Yeah, 2 - 3 colors for the first run, but ideas would be good to know what to include in the next poll.


Also.... sunburst anyone?

or this Desert Burst, is pretty spiffy...

 

[MaxOfMetal]

+1 Gold Top
+1 Bursts (Especially the HSB)
+1 Silverburst

How about this with an extra string and 3000 series appointments?

^ Wow, that's a poorly executed burst But yeah, I love all things Silverburst, so definately +1 to that!

 

[7deadlysins666]

Hmm, actually looks like Solid colors may be the majority with the exception of one sunburst. I think if we go with mostly or all solid colors, maybe go for a plain maple cap instead of figured. Save the curly stuff for transparent finishes, and save us some $$ in the process.

Yeah they chose just about the worst example for those pics. A lot of the actual photos, from owners of those guitars, I've seen, they typically are a lot better executed. I attribute that fairly bad one to A) it was from the first batch quite some time ago, and B) it's a lower level (2000) AL.

Or they could just suck at Silverburst.

Cherry sunburst please. That's the "classic" LP finish. That and the "Black Beauty" color scheme would be nice.

If you could just do a standard set-neck AL 7 with that, it'd be cool. Although I'm unlikely to buy one anytime soon thanks to school.

Give me the birdseye and I'm in... after I buy the Sentinel.

 

[beneharris]

gotta have that black beauty. that would be absolutely gorgeous. the burst tops will be awesome too though.

 

[Emperoff]

Looks like classic specs are the winners. Should we start a poll about finishes?

 

[XeoFLCL]

Hmm.. I made a thread of the same exact nature quite a while back with I guess no success I hope the idea has sparked enough interest this time for the plans to actually go through

Also, I'm completely for covered pups if they're cepheus', it'd be well worth the wait.

 

[Emperoff]

Holy shit!

It looks awesome without the pickup rings.

 

[Sullen]

Ash body, Maple top, Mahogany neck, ebony fretboard, any scale up to 27" and Silverburst finish, I already came really bad...

 

[MoNsTaR]

i really want 27" scale and uniform profile
the black beauty would be soooooo nice!

 

[synrgy]

My 2 cents:

1. I'm definitely interested. I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner.

2. I think original LPC specs (or as close to them as possible) is the way to go

3. This heel (from the AL-2000) is far superior to the others:

4. My votes for finish are white, black, silverburst, and maybe dragonburst would be rad, too!

Beyond that, honestly I don't care. I'd just like to see this happen.

WOW!!!!!!!! That looks great!


I will be starting the next poll as soon as I have my coffee.
