They're great for modding. Most people seem to say they can be solid guitars, but the cheap plastic nut will need to be replaced. Usually I see people bolt MIM Fender necks onto the bodies and call it good.

Trevor Wilkinson has an inexpensive guitar brand called "Vintage Guitars" (try finding that on a Google search...) that keeps getting solid reviews.

Some folks even like the necks and just switch out the tuners, pots and pups - IMO anyway you go about it...

I've played a couple of Rondo products, they were good value and fun. A guy had a short scale fretless bass, he paid less than 200 for it I believe, it was quite playable.

those Agiles and Douglass from Rondo look killer...

I like this one and an considering ordering...

I can only speak for their basses (which I've seen, played, and heard about).  Bang for the buck - outstanding, and a better value than probably any low end priced instrument.  *I* just won't have anything to do with a bass on that level.  Call me spoiled, a snob, whatever (I don't really care) - many of us just have our standards   :dontknow:

I wish I would have know about Rondo before I bought my sister's Squier, could have saved some money and got a better guitar too.

yeah I would try a Agile before I would buy a squier or a epiphone!

also curious about Xaviere (guitar fetish) and Axl

weird but interesting...

I have a 5 string bass from Rondo and it's a good instrument for the money.  It needed shielding inside the cavity and I still want to change out my pickups, but all in all it's a good solid instrument.

I've played far better mind you, it's hardly a world class instrument, but if you want a good low cost but good quality instrument it's pretty good.  Great for starter equipment!
