I guess I can let you guys know about this now (custom Agile content)

Kronpox · 04-20-2008, 01:15 PM

So while all the talks about the production model was going on, I asked Kurt if the production model doesn't go into effect, would customs still be available... then asked a few more questions... then asked a few more...

and now yesterday I sent off a deposit for one of these:

(yeah, I kind of like meshuggah)

It's pretty similar to the production 828 specs.
maple 5-piece neckthru, mahogany wings, ash top, ebony fretboard.
28.625" scale, custom headstock (lifted directly from an FM-408; yeah I'm shameless), custom inlay
translucent charcoal black with satin finish
truss rod cover says "FOR THE METAL" on it for lulz

He's going to ship it with no electronics and just route it for a Lundgren, a volume pot and a tone pot. I'll install the electronics when it gets here. This saved me a whole pile of money compared to how much it would have cost with an 808.

My friend also ordered this one, with basically the same specs except a green finish and a different inlay. And his truss rod just has initials DHG.

I'll let you guys know how it goes in 4 months

wow that grey one looks amazing, a bit Meshuggah indeed!

Really really nice. I think the green one can come out really nice.

Apophis · 04-20-2008, 02:32 PM

Nice, looks awesome, I like the black one

Kronpox · 04-20-2008, 02:36 PM

Thanks guys- I should point out that these are both pro MSpaint sketches (aside from a bit of photoshopping on mine that a friend of mine did) and not exactly how the guitars are going to turn out. The green one is going to basically be a green Loomis.

Also interesting that Kurt let us design our own logo for the headstock, so we used fonts from our band logo and made this:

pretty gnar in my opinion

May I ask how much they cost?

Hexer · 04-20-2008, 04:27 PM

I think the mockups look really cool! looking forward to your reviews!

xet · 04-20-2008, 05:08 PM
