I talked a bit about there. yamahavintagefg.boards.net/thread/124/donated-yamaha-fg-75-1

I have another FG-75-1 that's in line for a neck reset. One of these days. But I do like the first FG-75-1 I've found, much better than the boxy FG-75.

I didn’t realize they had different bracing and resultant tone. I’ll have to keep an eye out for a FG-75-1! Structure and tone-wise, are the FG-75-1 closer to the Nippon FG-110 then?

Yes, the FG-75-1 is similar but different than the FG-110 because of the difference in shape and depth. I like them both!
