750XL coming in on friday!

[Dave L]

I´ve always wanted one of these, and although it´s definitely been played it looks to be in pretty good shape. I can´t remember seeing one in pearl white for a while, which is cool. I think this is gonna see a lot of playing time!





Do the pics show up? I suck at the internet.

[Sunbane]

Awesome!

Did you buy it nationally, or is it imported? There aren't very many of those around up here.

[Dave L]

Thanks, man! This is actually the first one I´ve seen for sale in Sweden, so I jumped on it pretty quickly.

I´m really looking forward to it... it´s definitely something different from my Soloists and Collens, construction-wise... and probably tone-wise as well.

[Sunbane]

Yeah, I've only seen one other, apart from mine; A Cherry Sunburst one that was for sale in Motala (I think).

[KMud]

I'd have snapped that up in a second, you lucky dog!

[Dave L]

So you´ve got one too? What color? But yeah, they´ve gotta be pretty rare around here.

EDIT: Thanks, KMud, I did get lucky this time!

Those charvel 750xls gave me so much GAS that I was actually considering purchasing a roundy!

[Sunbane]

So you´ve got one too? What color?

Magenta!

Btw, this one is imported. Previous owner was Mike (Model88).

That sounds familiar. I'm really a V person at heart, but my addiction to non-recessed Floyds has driven me to purchase old Charvels.

[Dave L]

Damn, that´s a hot finish! Mine´s got to be from later in the run, as you can see that my one has got that "prototype" semi-recess for the Floyd even though it´s got a tilt-back neck.

[Super_shredder]

both of them look damn HOT

[Sunbane]

I actually think that it was the earlier ones that had the pull-up route, but only the serial# will tell for certain.

[RobRR]

Sweet! Just got mine as well... its gonna take some getting used to, as the space between the bridge and the last fret is 1/4" smaller than a normal 25.5 scale guitar... its not much, but its noticeably more cramped, ot atleast to me it is.

[S.O.A.F]

wow,it's a hot finish....is it has a arch-top body?

[Downfall]

Wow! 750XL's have always looked beautiful man, Congrats. I love the Yellow 750XL Shawn Lane played in his Power Licks and Solos videos.

Yeah, it´s probably gonna take a few days to get the muscle memory around it properly... but I think I´m gonna be OK. I´ve played a friends Fusion pretty much, and it seems to work fine for me.

S.O.A.F - Yes, these are archtops.
