Yes, I was the lucky one who nabbed this off LA Craigslist for 250 ducks, with original case. Some damage to her, but I fixed her best I could... voila: added fretsonthenet.com pickup rings, threw in some Bill Lawrence pickups and added an original Floyd Rose... Plays HEAVENLY, I like her more than the Soloist Archtop Pro I had a year or so ago...Still haven't figured out the wiring perfectly...yet, but she looks finished:

I just got a 750XL too. Mine still has the oversized rings, but they look kind of funny to me. One of them is also starting to crack I was thinking of redrilling to use standard rings. If I drill it JUST right, the edges of my new rings will cover up the old holes - scary, i really don't want to mess this up.
Just go to www.fretsonthenet.com and buy the special mounting rings.
