100$ for an ebony board is very reasonable in my book

True, ebony isn't exactly a cheap option these days, but for me, IMO, getting the maple fretboard option for $100 cheaper was awesome, as I wanted a guitar with a maple fretboard for a while now, and saving money on top of it is an extra added bonus.

 

[Ishan]

I wanted a maple board too so you know...

 

[techjsteele]

Hey, get one of each! Best of both worlds.

Though I'm not sure if there are any left......

 

[Splees]

soooo, does anyone know where I can order some parts to upgrade my Standard? locking tuners to be more specific.

 

[Wound]

Any idea how much shipping to the UK would work out at on top of the (extremely reasonable) price of the instrument...?

Well shipping to Norway was 95 $ so i would say around that area

Sperzels are your best bet as they take up to .079 strings as for the pickup I don't know on what it was modeled so I guess you'll have to wait till you have the guitar and use a ruler There's many otpions : BKP (any pickups they make can be an 8 string one), Swineshead (they do 2 set of humbuckers), Lundgren (the famous M8), and many custom company like Haussel, Nordstrand, etc...

I'm SERIOUSLY thinking on getting an ebony board one after I get my Intrepid Pro, damn, the GAS is killing me

 

[Splees]

AH RIGHT. I forgot about Sperzel. now I just have to find a place to get eight of them.
Yeah I'm definitely going to wait on the pickup... since I have no idea how it's going to sound. It could be nice, who knows.

I know what you mean. I was going to go the custom route, but the standard hit me hard. It was too good of a deal to pass up.

 

[Wound]

I wonder how the bridge is on the standard model, anyone got a clue?

 

[Ishan]

No one knows, it's certainly a simpler copy of the Hipshot bridge.

 

[Wound]

Proly eventually uprade it to a Hipshot, put on some Sperzel and an M8 and we´re off!

 

[darren]

It looks like there may still be burst models available. HURRY!

Agile Intrepid Standard 8 Dark Burst at HomeOld

Agile Intrepid Standard 8 Dark Burst / Ebony at HomeOld

BTW, just so you guys know, i do NOT get any commission on these.

I just want them to be successful so everyone who wants an affordable 8 can get one.

 

[nuclearvoodoo]

YAY! I just ordered one of the Ebony models very excited. Has anyone else from Australia ordered a rondo 8 string yet?

Is there any idea on the timeframe of when more Pro's will be available? I missed out on one of these and would love to get one too

 

[TomAwesome]

It'll probably be at least a few more months before the next run.

 

[Zepp88]

So, this has to happen right when I have no spare cash to spend!

 

[darren]

Kurt is waiting to see if there are any production issues with the first batch. Anything that needs to be modified and/or corrected will go into the next run, which won't be until after the first ones arrive, so likely in the August/September time frame to take orders, and shipping 3 months after that. Hopefully arriving in time for Christmas!

 

[NegaTiveXero]

It really sucks I didn't have the money to get these this time, but I know if anything is wrong with these it'll be fixed for sure for the next run, which I'm saving up for. I may pick up an Interceptor to hold me over though.

 

[wes225]

sadly by time i have money to buy one the first batch will be sold im sure of it. but whateva i can wait

 

[nuclearvoodoo]

wow... ONE ebony burst left..

and.... 2 burst maples.

 

[techjsteele]

I'm surprised there are any left! Well, now would be the time to get them.
