Anything in this price range will be made of either that or basswood. I can't say that I'd recommend any of these, but at that cost you don't have many options.
You do, however, get a well-done set neck (if you're into that sort of thing - I am, I hate bolt-on heels) and a generally well-put-together guitar. The hardware is also quality stuff and you could get great sounds out of it with new pickups and some tweaking.
After looking through those Rondo guitars again (haven't looked at the cheaper ones in a while) there's an Explorer-shape (and if you don't like Explorers... Devin Townsend) made of mahogany with a set maple neck for $250. I'd be tempted to go for that if I had a dime to my name.
Like anything, check out Harmony Central for reviews first because most of these Rondo guitars have some flaws but can be fixed (badly tweaked hardware, not build issues) easily. So you can just buy one of these Agile models and use the money you saved on buying this over one of the 'real ones' by investing parts and getting it tweaked by your guitar tech.

They wouldn't have Rondos. That's something you have to order online from them directly, unfortunately, but you do save money over going through middleman after middleman so you're really getting a guitar that you might pay twice as much for in GC.
