Man that is a SWEETT axe you got there jtcnj!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!! That wood with the Black hardware very nice!

 

[BlackSG91]

I like the overall theme of the guitar and the P-90 pick ups are a bonus for that classic rock sound. Agile sure make great guitars at a great price!

ITs a Jr ...Sr.

Update:
I hung a baggie with some .38 spl wadcutter bullets in it (i used to reload) and hung it around the strap at the rear like a ballsack.
Big improvement. I'm guessing about between 1- 1 1/2 lbs. I can stuff the cavity with some wrapped in painter's tape if need be.

I ordered a set of Musiclilly green key style tuners and adapter bushings.
Comparing the weight of smilar green keys and Grovers, this should trim about 6oz. from the headstock.
Looking at the balance of a lever, I believe this weight reduction at the headstock (at a significant distance from the lever fulcrum) will make a big difference.
I played it tonight and just love it.

I tuned down a step and a half to C# and was banging out some Into the Void.
*big ss-stupid grin*

Also, I have been wanting better tuners for my AXL LP JR.; the black Grovers will fit that role perfectly.

 

[eSGEe]

GOOD ON YA-- just had that same BIG A** stuoid grin after I finished banign out hte bass lines to EVERYTHING IS BROKEN---
aint life grand?!?!?!

The ballsack reference reminds me of this Fleetwood Mac album cover.

[jtcnj]

"this guitar really has some BALLS!!"

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

LOL OMG JT, Adrian already got to your new guitar before you got it.

 

[Sp8ctre]

I really like it! Make the "Ballsack" look real and give the guitar an appropriate name...

 

[jtcnj]

LOL OMG JT, Adrian already got to your new guitar before you got it.

Lol It took a moment but I see the parallel there.
Adrian RUBS his junk on guitars; I HUNG my junk on this one.

Well, that went sideways quickly.

 

[eSGEe]

no no no -- sideways can pull a groin muscle -- GEESH

Holy Groin Scum...!!!

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

I'm the guy who wishes for a private soundproof room so I can sound bad by myself, and conversely sound good by myself LOUD enough to enjoy trying various guitars by myself.

Now drums, I don't mind people around, because drums are made to go crazy on them.

This has been my solution to neck dive.

2 of these weight collars



tied to the end of a length of wire with padding around it and sealed in duct tape



Hung from the back strap peg

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

I'd be inclined to try this in the cavity instead of hanging things off the guitar.

Harbor Freight has these stick on wheel weights.

If I had neck dive that bad I'd buy a new guitar...
