Looks more close to the ESP Horizon body style to me than the Soloist.

Yes, that's true, but it has the bigger, rounder horns that both Eclipse and Mirage have, as opposed to the thin, sharp horns that the original Interceptor has. I would say the body is slightly thicker at the edges than a Horizon, and a bit more like a Schecter that way.

How does the neck compare to an ESP M or MH? The Thin-U I think?

I've never played an M-307 or an MH, so I can't say. The neck is a bit thicker than the H-207 and H-307, however, but not grossly so. Much different profile than the H-307, with that 'thin-U' you refer to. The Agile Pro has a very pronounced "C" shape more like a Schecter, albeit not that thick.

Still happy?

I was busy all weekend and only had a chance to play around with it a bit for a few minutes last night before I went to bed. But yeah, I'm still happy with it. It plays and sounds nicer than you'd expect from a $600 guitar. It's definitely going to be my main guitar until the KXK shows up, and I'll probably keep it even after that. I'd say that anybody looking for a sub-$1000 7-string with 25.5" scale should seriously consider this guitar.

I'll see if I can take some pics this evening of the cavities and give a few more comments.

yea but hey I can and most likely will sell it after a month.

Ok, here are a couple of pics of the cavities. Low quality, but no one ever accused me of being a great photographer. The light in my studio is very poor.

The first one shows both cavities. As you can see, there is plenty of room in the control cavity for a battery, which would have eliminated the need for the battery box, but there you go. Electronics installation appears pretty clean to me.

Next we have a closeup of the trem cavity. You can see how the two middle screw holes are drilled way too close to the edge of the cavity. Also, you can see how the rout is angled to provide room for the springs. My handiwork in stripping the bass-side claw screw, fortunately, remains hidden.
