Greco Les Paul EG-500 1979 - Cherry sunburst - japan import

Greco is a Japanese guitar manufacturer, established in 1967.

Depending on the year, they are manufactured in Matsumoku or Fuji-gen (the factory where the equally famous Japanese Fender guitars are produced).

Perfect copies of GIBSON guitars. To put it simply: 'GIBSON made in Japan' at a perfect price-quality ratio. We are well-versed in the excellence and rigor of Japanese luthiers.

Uncommon on the French market and rightly sought after, our Japanese network allows us to offer them to you.

GRECO LES PAUL Standard Series EG-500 Cherry Sunburst, made in 1979 in JAPAN.

"Certified No break, No crack." Quite a few minor wear marks, but very good overall condition, with the frets originally played in good condition: 6/10 (see photos for more details). Excellent playability, very comfortable. And binding covering the edges of the frets ('fret nibs' = Gibson process :)

Sounds: wow... improved by time.

The original MAXON pickups are excellent, incisive, powerful, precise, nothing to envy from Gibson pickups, which are also similarly made = Series 1 = the best of the time, prototypes.

An excellent Greco Les Paul.

Sustain and resonance are spot on.

1979 = one of the best years: "GRECO's Golden Age."
