I thought the M-75 and X-175B used the same Franz p-90s (except obviously the covers).
But the current Guild website says this for the Franz P-90s:

X-175B Bridge - Alnico 5, 6.90K
X-175B Neck, Alnico 5, 6.90K

M-75 Bridge - Alinco 2, 6.67K
M-75 Neck - Alnico 2, 6.76K

Yet in the description for the M-75 they talk about using Alnico 5 magnets.

Are these differences typos on the Guild webpage? If the M-75 does have Alnico 2 magnets how would the sound differ from the Alnico 5 magnets?

Have the Franz P-90s been consistent for the NS models or have there been changes over the few years they have been out? Thanks

I can tell you that the Guild website has not always been a great source of accuracy
