LAG Arkane series?
« on: February 21, 2007, 07:09:10 PM »
I've been searching for a black, 24 fret, floyd rose equipped guitar that's H/S/H, and has good fret access and isnt a pointy RG ibanez...

And these look like they'd fit the bill quite nicely!

http://www.lagguitars.com.au/MODEL/AM100_BLK.htm

For £299, could be something that'd be good to soup up with a proper floyd, bkp's etc.

But has anyone tried one? the more expencive ones are supposed to be really nice but theres no where near me that does them! these cheap ones could have cr@p necks...

Anyone have any other suggestions on what im looking for?

I dunno about the neck, but it's absolutely stunningly beautiful :o

If they all look that smooth then I'll need to buy one.

Go to Red House Music in Cookridge. I think they are the biggest LAG dealer in Leeds. Catch the 96 bus from outside the Light and just stay on it til you get there it's just after you go past a train station. They had this one

I think LAG guitars would do better if they got rid of those weird looking people on their adverts. Especially on Roxanne, I mean, wtf.

Red House... can't say i've ever been, looks like it's near a train station on google earth, could get a train from burley up there... eaaasy. cheers!

Yeah the adverts have put me off looking them up, and their other guitar styles arent so nice, but this one looks like it could be a nice little jem.

If only they werent french ;)

The curved pickup selector is deeply, deeply annoying, and can't be easily replaced...Just an early warning.

not true, the blonde in one of the adverts is hot.

I don't think I've tried that exact lag, the ones I have tried did seem to be good value (though I didn't try any of the floyd ones, I'm sceptical of the quality of cheap floyds).

:? fair enough. I must be in the minority then I still think those adverts are off putting. Including the one with the blonde lass, not that she isnt nice.

haha I found em off putting as well. Why would a bald man with cr@p tattoos/peircings make you want to buy that guitar?

Sh1t adverts (to me)

Have played a couple of the Roxannes and also a couple of their acoustics and found them really nice.

I havn't played their super st*ats though, but if theyre like the roxannes theyre very nice to play.

I tried one a few months ago.
Very good,i didn't like the floyd but it's a real nice playing guitar.
Good for the price.
