My second 750xl

[dosgamos78]

Finally I've found an amber 750xl!!!


Very hard to find in Italy..

[Sunbane]

Congrats! ...but you better check its intonation...

[dosgamos78]

Yeah! I've just received it.. I've to work a little on that

[jackson1]

Oh sweet! The Amber ones are the nicest. Good job

[scotty]

Nice pair!

Be sure to give us your opinion of the tone comparison! I'm very curious, because didn't we recently hear of one of the solid ones not being mahogany/maple after someone stripped it?

[jackson1]

Yes, RobRR did the stripping of paint on one, and his pictures showed something not resembling Mahogany. I think he sold it to a fellow JCF'er.

Very hard to find in Italy..

Uhmmmm.....very hard to find ANYWHERE.

[dosgamos78]

I confirm that the solid color one is not made of mohogani (I've tried to strip away some paint in the bridge cavity).. the amber one is also far more heavier than the pearl blue one
I cannot compare the two sounds cause the blue has two duncan (TB4 and Jazz) and the amber one has stock pickups.. but i'll upgrade also that soon

[masxwave]

the amber one is also far more heavier than the pearl blue one

so it means that the amber one is made of mahogany?
what about solid color 750xl that is as heavy as any les paul standard or custom?

[dosgamos78]

The amber one is surely made of mohogani (with maple top) and the solid color one is made of alder (maybe with a maple top too.. but not sure)..

Very Nice guitars!

Damn, I wish I kept mine. It had a cool silverflake with off-white binding. I never saw metal flake like that. I was moving all kinds of gear at that time. I think I traded it for a Mesa Mrk III around '91/'92. I had a couple things I really regret gettin' rid of..that was one!

My 750XL smelled like coco powder mix!!! I thought it was the case. Whenever I had it out of the case..the whole room would smell like coco. That was awesome!
