We Got us a killer 1980s Greco EGC68-50, finished in a gorgeous Violin Sunburst and built during the golden era of Japanese guitar manufacturing. Greco’s Fujigen-built instruments have become highly regarded for their quality, craftsmanship, and vintage-inspired construction, offering outstanding value and performance that rivals many American-made instruments of the era.

This example appears to retain its original electronics, original Greco humbuckers, original F.G.T. bridge and tailpiece, and original Greco tuners, making it a fantastic choice for players and collectors alike. The Violin Sunburst finish beautifully highlights the wood grain beneath and gives this guitar a classy, vintage aesthetic.

The neck has a comfortable medium profile and plays effortlessly up and down the fretboard. The guitar is lightweight for a LP style instrument at just 8.65 lbs, making it an excellent stage or studio companion.

Condition

Very good vintage condition overall.

The finish presents beautifully with only light cosmetic wear from decades of careful use, including scattered scratches, small nicks, minor dings, and hardware patina consistent with age. One of the saddles in the bridge has been replaced with a graphite saddle for the low E at some point in it’s life. The frets show light to moderate wear but still have plenty of life remaining and the guitar plays well with comfortable action.

All electronics function as intended and the instrument is structurally sound and ready to be enjoyed.
