I am interested in discovering the manufacturer of Agile guitars as
imported into the U.S. by rondo music. The conventional wisdom is that
they are made in korea but i have been unable to tie down a specific
manufacturer. If you can identify the source and provide contact
information you would be helping me greatly. regards, greg.

According to Buck62, they are made by 'Samick'...

  
"Agile guitars are made by Samick. They are decent guitars, but still
not quite as good as the Samick brand themselves.
  
Of all the Asian-made guitars, more than 50% of all guitars under $500
are made by Samick of Korea. Another 25% of guitars under $500 are
made in factories owned by Cort, which has manufacturing facilites in
Korea and Indonesia. Yamaha guitars are made in their own facility in
Taiwan. The rest are manufactured in independent factories in China
and Vietnam. OLP guitars and Carlo Robelli, for example, are Chinese
and Vietnamese made.
  
Any guitar that has Samick, Cort, Epiphone, or Yamaha on the headstock
are going to be the best 'import' guitars for the money because they
have the highest "quality control." Three of these four brands have
their final inpections and set-up done in the USA by American
inspectors.
  
Cort guitars have their final inspections done at their American
headquarters in Northbrook, Illinois. Samick does their final
inspections at their American headquarters in Fremont, California.
Epihone guitars have their final inpection and set-up done by
Gibson/USA. Yamaha guitars get their final inspection done at their
facility in Taiwan, but they have a VERY good inspection process."
