for cheaper you can get a schecter hellraiser 7, much higher quality guitar i think, and looks just as good.

The tone of the Agile was better than the Ibanezes, though to be fair putting a Blaze Custom in the 7620 woke it up quite a bit. The Agile sounded more Jackson-like, which is probably why I liked it. It also may be that I got an unusually good one. Mine was from the first run of Interceptor Pros, when they had the Schecter-like body style.

I've got 2 Agiles (both 8 strings) and a Carvin 727. I got my Agiles a year ago, so maybe something has changed, but the fret work and action on my Agiles is great. The bodies tend to be more aggressive looking than Carvins, too, which I like. I'm not a fan of Ibbys due to the rosewood FBs, and I like that Agiles offer options that don't exist for other companies. Where else could you get a 30" 8 string with a Kahler? I guess some of us like Agile, some Ibby, some Carvin.

Angel's Interceptor is fucking awesome, I'll say that.

I like Kurt, I just wish he was their QC guy as well. I've just seen way too many bad Agiles and not enough good ones, so I hate on them like Dave in a Line 6 store.

Well, Kurt will exchange it for you if you hate it. However, I probably wouldn't take the chance, either. I'm already ambivalent about buying imports online, since it's too easy to get a bad one, so why worsen my chances?

Exactly. I took a gamble on my Carvin, and it worked out. Ken B took a gamble on his, and it didn't work out.

Exchanging is great and all, but there are just too many bad ones. I've seen a couple with fretwork that you could saw up a cord of firewood with.
