They’ve Done It…It’s Done! A Glow In The Dark Guitar!

The Glow In The Dark Agile Septor 827 Luminary Is Here!

We’ve put men on the moon (allegedly 😉 ).  We have cured Polio, packed a computer the size of a room into a phone that can fit in the palm of your hand, created the automobile, the computer, internet and put cheese in a can.

However there has been one thing that has eluded us as a human race…a glow in the dark guitar.  Well that thing shall elude us no more!  We now can have it in our clutches. The Agile Septor 827 Luminary “glow in the dark” guitar is a dream no more but is now a reality.

All kidding aside the thing does look pretty cool.  At first we thought it might be kind of cheesy but upon further review the Agile Septor 827 Luminary would be pretty sweet at gigs with the lights low.

Why Didn’t Someone Think Of This Sooner?

So the Septor 827 Luminary is pretty much the same as just a regular Agile Septor 827 except it is 8 strings of glowing goodness.  You get the standard double cutaway, light weight mahogany arch top body with 3 piece maple bolt on neck and rosewood fretboard.

The fretboard is where the “glow in the dark guitar” stuff comes into play.  The inlays in the fretboard glow and are activated by a standard black light.

In addition to the “glow” the guitar has a dual adjustable truss rod, cepheus alpha and beta passive pickups in the bridge and neck position respectively and Grover tuners.

This Is Perfect For Gigs!

Duh! I mean what guitarist doesn’t need a little something extra to give him or her the edge at a gig?  Spinal Taps amps went to 11 but you can have a glow in the dark Agile guitar.  Plus when it is dark you will still be able to find your position on the neck while playing.

That is next level stuff.  Now if you have amps that go to 11 plus a guitar that glows in the dark that definitely elevates you to guitar god status…well in our minds anyways…unless you suck!

Enough of the kidding.  We want this guitar.  It looks hot, it glows in the dark (which is cool) and it is an Agile!

Oh yeah…we almost forgot the price.  The Agile Septor 827 Luminary is actually very reasonably priced and that makes it even more attractive to have in your collection.

Alright we have waxed poetic enough about the Septor 827 Luminary.  Waxed poetic may be a bit of a stretch but you should CHECK IT OUT for yourself and see what you think!

Agile Pendulum Pro Multiscale 82527

It all started when we came across this picture and did a little re-gram action with it.

Yes we know it is actually a 10 string Agile but, as of the writing, Rondo music is only offering 10 string guitars from the custom shop so you can’t actually buy this guitar right now.

Enter the Agile Pendulum Pro 82527

Anyhow, we decided the next best thing would be the Agile Pendulum Pro multiscale 82527.  It is almost as badass as the 10 string but…well to say it is less badass is not really fair.  The Agile Pendulum Pro 82527 is very badass in it’s own right!

There is something about this guitar that just looks menacing.  This is one of the things that just draws people to this guitar and is one of the things that we like about this guitar.

The menacing warrior-like look of this guitar makes you feel like it is ready to slay all eardrums that come into its path.

Yes we know this meme is from Gamergate, for those of you that know what that is, but it really captures how the Agile Pendulum Pro 82527 makes us feel.

This multi scale beast is a 5 piece neck thru body guitar.  The body is mahogany with ebony fretboard. Due to the multi scale design you get an angled nut and angled pickups.

Speaking of pickups both are EMG 909 actives.  As with all Agile guitars Grover tuners are standard equipment.

The Agile Pendulum Pro 82527 weighs in at an adequate 10 pounds.  We could say more but don’t take our word for it.

Great Affordable Guitars For 2017

It’s 2017!  We all made it to a new year.  According to exit polls half of you feel like 2017 is gonna be just great and the other half…well not so much!

In spite of whatever side of the political coin you fall on may we suggest something that we think would absolutely bring the world together.  And what would that be?  Well if everyone got a new guitar in 2017 we’d be willing to bet this world would be a much better place!

With that in mind let us take this opportunity to suggest some guitars that we think would make great additions to your collection.

Agile Interceptor

The Agile Interceptor is available in 7 string or 8 string configurations.  This model, depending on features, can be found for anywhere from the $300 to $800 dollar range.

The main features of the guitar are a double cutaway arch top mahogany body, reverse headstock,  adjustable truss rod and Grover tuners.

The guitar comes in either 25 1/2″, 27″ or 28″ scales.  There is also a choice between ebony, rosewood and maple materials for the fretboard.

The Interceptor can be purchased with either a bolt on neck or neck-thru construction.  Depending on which variation of the Interceptor you get there is also a difference in pickups between the cheaper interceptors and the more expensive ones.

The cheaper Interceptors usually are equipped with the Cepheus pickups while the more expensive ones come equipped with Seymour Duncan or EMG pickups.

Agile Intrepid

If you are looking for a different shape guitar than the Pendulum or Interceptor than the Agile Intrepid may interest you. To us there is something about the shape of the Intrepid that just looks sinister…and we like it!

The Intrepid’s are offered in either standard scale or multi scale versions.  The guitars range in price from $500 to $600 and can be had in 7 string or 8 string models.

All the Intrepid’s we have seen have a mahogany body, Grover tuners and at the time of this writing all Intrepid’s offered had ebony fretboards.

For the multi scale Intrepid’s they are available in a scale range of 25 1/2″ to 27″ or 27″ to 28″.

The construction of the Intrepid is a 5 piece neck thru design.
