Greco EG-500
A lovely LP style from Greco. Put together with love at the legendary FujiGen factory in Japan, these old Greco's have become highly sought after in recent years by collectors and players alike.
The late 70's was when FujiGen really got into their groove, the copies became much more refined and true to the original American guitars they were imitating. We love this old EG-500, a proper vintage gem with a comfortable neck and punchy set of humbuckers.

Our old EG-500 is in very good condition for a guitar of this vintage. There's some age related marks here and there (pictured) but it wears them all very well. The scratchplate screw on the lower bout is snapped off in the body (not by us) but just part of the guitars history!
