looks really nice - i like the reflector knobs!

+1 they make quite a difference IMO

You'll need turn round the mini-hum (adjustment screws pointing the the bridge) to match Adrian's  :wink:

yes good point - i was thinking about it.. thought it looked a bit strange though. looking at the way the pickup is angled, i guess he did this for output reasons. think i'm going to leave it as it is though

So - a lot of love for Agile guitars...

Might have to investigate.  It certainly looks good.

That's a very pretty guitar you have there.  You should be really chuffed with that.

Glad you finally got the GoldTop! Love the quirky pickup mix too.

thanks for the nice words guys  :D

used it in anger tonight - totally sold on a mini-hb neck at gigging volumes. its just right - sounds like a neck, but its not flubby, and it still has a cut.

Yet another lovely guitar... I think it's great when people pimp & put their own mark on a stock guitar. Congrats

What's the comfortability compared to a Gibson? Obvious question I suppose.

similar to the gibsons i've tried. the neck couldn't be described as thick but it has a nice action and plays well

Looks great. Agiles are so great for the money. I have a Miracle Man set ready to go in my AL-2500 this weekend. I will be posting pics.
