Agile AL 2000 Goldtop w/90's
Ordered this last nite. Actually my second one! The first one I bought last year......after the honeymoon wore off, I ended up selling it on ebay. I
actually got what I paid for it. Over the months.....It kept creeping into my head...seeing videos on youtube,reviews, etc of that model. Took the
plunge and got it ,,again.
Never had a problem with it. Nice built guitar. Set up good out of box. Nice pups.

My AL2k goldie is hands down, my favorite guitar, and one of the best playing Les Paul type guitars I've played (feel, finish, tone). I did upgrade
the pickups to Tonerider Vintage 90's, and that made a substantial difference, but not in how it feels. Congrats and welcome back to the Golddiggers!
At first I thought I was playing the guitar, now I find out the guitar has been playing me....

Congrats on the purchase! They're great guitars. Like Zonk mentioned, a pair of Tonerider P-90s makes them sound fantastic.
Nice to see another Mike Ness fan here too

My goldtop is purdy...but I seldom play it. Not because it's not a great guitar.
Mainly coz I'm just a lazy dumbass with too many guitars....

Well, we can fix the latter part of that, but not the former. Just send me some of those gits and - problem solved!
No need to thank me, always glad to be of assistance.

Interesting story behind my Agile 2000....
Some dude bought it and thought it sounded like crap so he had sheptone p-90s installed and tonemojo wiring...and still thought it sounded like crap
so he sold it to me for the cost of the guitar alone.
I have a small collection of very high spec Epiphone Elitists and an Agile 4000 and my Agile 2000 has probably the best clean sound out of all of
them.
In fact it is the only guitar I would dare to play on youtube with literally no gain at all. It sounds fat as shit on the clean channel.

Received my box from Kurt yesterday. Guitar looked great. Couple frets were sharper than I care..but easy fix. When I plugged it in...I had a loud
BUZZ. Bridge pup worked fine. Neck pup just had a buzz, no sound from strings. Mmmm, not good. 
Im an amateur at modding. I didnt want to send it back to Kurt and wait for another one. I figured it was not grounded. Probably a loose wire. Took
the back plate off...and VO-LAH!...a loose wire had off the pot.
Got my trusty iron and soldered that baby back. Now, sounds great and no BUZZ. Easy fix...now ready to rock . ...and a new pack of strings.
