Greco SG
Now here's something very cool. We're stoked to offer this stunning vintage Greco for sale, it's a rare bird not being featured in any catalog that I can find. This is an Order Made Greco, likely produced in limited numbers for a retailer. I've seen a couple more examples online so I doubt it's a customer one off.
It's a 70's style SG reminiscent of the Norlin Era Gibson SG-2's albeit with Greco P-90's in lieu of mini humbuckers. The black and cream binding down the side of the neck, dot inlays and harmonica style bridge all scream 70's Gibson.
The neck is super slim and fast, the pickups sound glorious and the guitar is an absolute sustain machine. A very special old SG indeed.
Spec:
- Mahogany body
- Mahogany neck
- Rosewood fingerboard
- 22 frets
- 2x Greco P-90 pickups
- 2x Volume Control
- 2x Tone Control
- 3-way switch

- Schaller Deluxe Kluson tuners (original Gototh stars included but one is missing a button)
- Original case (complete with original curly cable)
Our old Greco is in great shape for a guitar of this vintage, there's some age related marks here and there but it wears them all very well. It's missing 1 screw from the neck pickup cover as the screw broke off (years of rust will do that) but it isn't going anywhere.
We've replaced the original tuners with a set of Schaller Deluxe Klusons as the originals were incomplete and we struggled to find a replacement set. These were the best match we could find for the screw holes and diameter, however the top screws didn't line up perfectly so we opted to just install the bottom screws. The original tuners and the new screws will be included should you like to reinstall the old tuners or complete the install the new Schallers, we opted to product the originality in this instance.
Freshly set up with D'Addario 10's and ready to go!
