(ARCHIVE) Greco EG-95 LP Gold Top 2000
- Description
- Guitarchives
Greco EG-95 Les Paul style, vintage gold, made in Japan 2000. Modern-ish Greco stuff is super nice: the build quality is excellent, and they really do the not-quite-reissue thing really well. What you see here is basically what you get: a pristine gold top LP, but with the easy wheel-style truss rod adjuster and a cool matte-black back and sides. Greco make their own pickups, and these 'Classic Screamin' humbuckers really bring a lot to the table: big thick mids, crunchy tops, fat bass. The 'vintage gold' finish is super sweet; it's a slightly yellow/orange hue and really sparkles beautifully; plus there's barely a mark on it. This will outplay guitars fetching thousands and thousands of dollars, all with a cheeky grin. Really cool guitar!
