Greco MSV-850 Michael Schenker Signature flying V – Japan 1982

Greco MSV-850 Michael Schenker Signature – Japan, June 1982 – Collector-grade condition

I'm offering a Greco MSV-850 from June 1982 – a rare Michael Schenker signature model (Scorpions, UFO), built in the legendary Fujigen factory in Japan. This is one of the most iconic and collectible Flying V guitars from the “lawsuit” era, faithfully replicating the specs of Schenker’s original V.

This example is in collector-grade condition, completely original, with the classic black-and-white finish and original Maxon PU-2 humbuckers. It comes with a period-correct leather gigbag, an exceptionally rare find and a perfect match for this instrument’s vintage vibe.
