5/5
posted Nov-10-2011
I just picked up an AL-3100 from Rondo Music and once again, I am blown away by how nice this guitar is! Mine is a cherry burst P-90 model with a maple neck. $299 for this guitar is just ridiculous! Mother of pearl inlays, Graphtech nut/bridge/tailpiece with stringsaver saddles, Grover 18-1s, multi-ply binding, beautiful sunburst top etc, etc, etc! I have several acoustic and electric guitars that cost much more than this AL-3100 and I would put this one right up there with any of them as far as build quality, finish, hardware is concerned. I have a USA Fender and a Taylor and this guitar doesn't have to make any apologies hanging next to those on my wall or plugged in. It truly is amazing how much guitar you get for the money, but again, the fact that this one cost $300 doesn't mean it is a budget guitar. I ordered it with a very nice brown hsc for $65 - ANOTHER great buy!
I should note that I am not a stranger to Rondo. I have bought an AL-2000 in the past as well as a SX Furrian and a J/P style short-scale bass for my kids and those are all a great value too.
In addition to providing great products, Kurt at Rondo provides service that is second to none. He's responsive to any questions I have had - always answers emails, etc. With my latest order - placed Monday morning, my guitar was delivered by the UPS man Wednesday evening!! Granted, I am in Connecticut - close by, but the bottom line is when you place an order, it is shipped FAST!!! I cannot say enough good things about my buying experiences from Rondo. I would buy another guitar from them in a heartbeat - you simply cannot find a better value than rondo and in particular the Agile line!
