    I have an "S20", which is an LP clone.

    I think it is an excellent guitar, it's heavy as a bastard, very solidly constructed, looks great with good attention to detail, and sounds pretty damn good to my ear, sustains for days.

    The stock bridge pickup is more than adequate, warm & chunky with medium output, the neck is a bit muddy, you might need to replace it if you're gigging.

    I've looked at the Agile LP's on the Rondo site that go for $299, and the model I have looks pretty much exactly like the Agile model that goes for $199, I believe it's the "AL-2000" series. I paid $299for mine a few years ago at a local dealer and am happy with it.

    If you're not a gear snob, you will be more than happy with one of these axes, they are an excellent value.

    I have a Jerry Reid Artist Tradition and it is one heck of a guitar.
    I can get just about any sound I want out of it from Tele to Gibson, it plays smooth as silk , and like you say, it is fairly heavy but worth it . Mahogany body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard, black quilt maple cap, Tele bridge, split rail center, and humbucker neck. Rail and humbucker are tapped.
    Great axe.
