Never had me a baritone beast before.
Just look at all that space between the pickups, wow.
I think that 27" scale would seem strange to play.

It is really not bad. It is about the same as playing an SG with respect to where your left hand lands.

They are very nice guitars. I heard Wolf makes a Rickenbacker copy that shines. I am having a hard time finding one.

Buckethead's signature Les Paul guitar is a 27" scale that probably plays good.

I'm resurrecting this thread, because I recently bought that B-stock Harm 1 "shown" in the OP. The pic is Rondo's stock photo for all of the Harm 1 Burls they sell, not the particular ones sold, and not this particular B-stock.
I wanted to try an Agile "just because". I have a lot of really nice guitars including Gibsons and Fender USA models, so I do know more expensive guitars. But I also have a soft spot for MIK models, and have some that are quite impressive, especially for their price point.
I've had my eye on the Agile 3200 LPs, liking the neck-thru, 3/4" caps, ebony boards, etc. Just waiting for the right one to show up in hopefully the $350 range?
Meanwhile this B-stock Harm 1 showed up on my radar, and the Rickenbacker look along with that burl top at $389 tripped my trigger.
I knew not to expect that fabulous top shown in the pic, but I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the top on it is. Really nice! Anyway, the B-stock imperfections are quite tolerable to me, and quite honestly are not that noticeable. I llike the feel and the sound. Good resonance unplugged, and it has the expected jangle type sound one expects from toasters. Needs a good setup to really get it into top playing shape, but so far so good. Chalk up *another* good MIK model!

WELCOME -- post some pics we love them!!!

FYI I have owned MANY "B" stock Agile/Rondo products ore the many years of hoarding---- and often times it could be a return-- or an open box situation that renders it a "B" stock-- not actually a true blemish-- -though I have owned a couple WITH "blems" that -- s you say where VERY VERY hard to find --- even once I KNEW it was there it was hard to FIND.....

this lovely beast was a "B:" stock


I dare you to find the blem

As was this a blem


IF I ever have a "need" for another Gold Top -- I will go DIRECTLY to Agile 3010-- they are amazing -- and frankly I wished I had never let this baby go

Thanks for the welcome. I'll be back with pics, I'm having a bit too much "life happens" to be able to spend much time with my gear. Nice thing is that it is there waiting for me.

Hey where did you get that guitar from, does that shexzy Goldmember know you have his axe eSGEe? Are you saying you sold it back to him hmm.

 

[Session 5]

This sort of reminds me of a Rickenbacker guitar.

;>)/

Yep I see the resemblance there Blackie!

 

[Session 5]

You can add a Bigsby to this. It is a 27" scale, so you have the room!

It is now in the possession of Spe8ctre, and I think he is selling it.

That is correct. Me and 27" scale are not working out, plus I'm not a big P90 fan. After about 5 attempts I'm done...
