This is a 1976 GRECO CUSTOM EG-480, one of the higher-quality models among the bolt-on neck Greco Les Pauls from the era.

This particular guitar is in incredibly good condition considering its age. The neck is straight, the truss rod still has room for adjustment, and the guitar is very easy to play. The fretboard and frets show very little wear, I would estimate around 70% fret life remaining, possibly more, as the guitar appears to have seen very little actual use over the years. It was likely stored for a long time or kept as part of a collection.

The guitar is all original.

Cosmetically, it has some scratches, small dings, and some other bigger dings on the edges, pelase refer to the pictures. and signs of age here and there, but nothing major that affects the playing.

this one does not come the vintage looking Hard-case used here only for photo purpose,(possible original to greco les paul) however, could be arranged by request for en extra cost if the buyer wishes, subject to availability.

the neck has slim 60s-style neck profile, and is equipped with original Maxon pickups (x2).

Features:

  • Original Maxon pickups
  • 3-way toggle switch
  • 2 Volume / 2 Tone controls
  • Slim 60s neck profile
  • Bolt-on neck construction
  • weight: About 3.9 kg (home scale)

A very affordable alternative to a 1970s Gibson Les Paul with plenty of vintage Japanese character and great playability.
