Wow, that's a big difference, all right. Thanks for posting. I'd like to see more pics of those fine ATs.

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

Man, with that kind of difference I don't think I'll ever get an AT Pro now. I like heavy guitars and I might just have to start a 750xl collection.

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

Wow, I sooo want to get a string-thru 750xl, but they are really hard to find around here.
Great pics everybody!

Ok, here's my AT Pro, unfortunately I don't have a better pic available yet:

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

The 750s are very thick and a whole lot heavier than the AT Pros.There are some other small difference.The neck sits a lot higher off the body on the 750 than the AT.The trems are non recessed on the 750 compared to recessed on the AT.

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

Don't the 750s also have rosewood boards, while the AT Pros have ebony?

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

The 750s do indeed have rosewood boards. I like them that way.

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

I have to say I love both the 750XL and the AT Pro but the neck on the AT Pro blows any of my 30 or so guitars away ! That's why I'll never sell it ! So don't ask ! [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I would however trade it for one with a trem (Joe Web !) [img]/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

How does the neck on the AT compare to that of the 750xl? The 750 has a really nice neck, similar to my 650xl, but just different enough to give a unique feel. It is effortless to switch between the two. I would put them somewhere in the middle of my RG1527 Wizard-7 neck and my Hamer Artist baseball bat thick neck.

Re: AT Pro vs 750XL

Man, I should have done that long ago, taken photos showing the difference between the two bodies.
Actually, I should have done it with the SLAT and original Archtop as well when I had them.
Since Mike is ending up with all the guitars I used to own, I just may have to concede the "Archtop"
throne to him. I don't think I am worthy anymore, especially since I am not able to hang out here
as often as I would like.
I do know that I am going to by-pass the classifieds and ebay when I have something to sell
and contact Mike first, since he seems to end up with all my "hand-me-down" guitars. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Seriously though, I'm glad to see the popularity of the AT Pros and the 750s hasn't faded.

I can help take the burden off of Mike when you decide to get rid of C904827. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
