1983 Greco Japan EGC68-50 Les Paul Custom (Black)
Made by the Fujigen factory in late 1983, this is the Greco EGC68-50 '68 reissue Les Paul Custom from the famous "Mint Collection" catalog. Mahogany back with a lightly carved maple top, slim 60's profile (with a very slight soft V), set mahogany neck and a 22 fret rosewood fingerboard, it weighs a nice solid 4.4kg's. Loaded with the original Screamin' 82 humbuckers along with the original bridge, tailpiece and Greco stamped tuners.
This is one of almost 50 guitars that we recently acquired from an Australian collector who kept most of his guitars safely stashed away and only used them very lightly at home.
This one has been well cared for over its life with some light bumps and dings but no breaks or repairs. The frets have plenty of life left with some basic pitting and the truss works as it should, the neck is nice and straight.
