Greco TL-500
A beautiful example of a Japanese Tele. Greco really got into their stride in the late 70's and the quality of the guitars coming out of the FujiGen factory was really starting to peak. Our TL-500 is a great example of a vintage Japanese built Telecaster, sporting a superb Maple neck and great set of Maxon pickups that deliver twang in spades!
The body is a beautiful piece of Japanese Ash with some lovely figuring to the grain, it looks great with the black guard and thin butterscotch finish!
Spec:
- Ash body

Our old TL-500 is in excellent condition for a guitar pushing on 50 years old, it's hardly been played! There's no major marks to the body and the frets are in excellent condition. The decal has had some epoxy spread over it by the previous owner, we imagine it was starting to flake off (common on these due to the thin finish applied to the headstock) and they've tried to save it. It could possibly be sanded down and polished to make it less raised but it's not too noticeable. We've pictured this as good as we could. Frehsly set up with D'Addario 10's and ready to go!
