Agile AS-1000 on Reverb

Listed as an AS-820, but pretty positive that's an AS-1000 as that definitely looks like an ebony board. $400+tax is too much but there's a make an offer option if anyone's had one of these long discontinued models on the wish list.

Don't think I've seen a stock AS-1000 with no headstock binding, so it might be a custom/semi custom. "Made in Korea" is a sticker on the back, probably marks it as an older model (pre 2009?). Definitely an ebony board, but who knows what pickups are in it?
I agree that $400 is slightly on the high side for these. That said, these are really really good 335'ish copies.

I think that’s an AS-1000. Even on the Rondo, the headstock binding is single ply and hard to see on a head on photo.

I looked at my AS-1000 which I purchased December 2008 and I can see how the headstock binding hides unless you get a side profile. So ya I’ll say it’s legit. The gold hardware and pickup covers looks to have faded some which is totally normal. At $400 I guess that’s a decent deal. It never hurts to make an offer like you said though
FWIW I still love my AS-1000

Yep I think it's just mislabeled and not a custom order. I freakin LOVE my custom AS-1000...my favorite Agile of all the ones I have owned over the years. Paid half this guy's asking price for mine though
