Greco 'Mint Collection' EGC68-60 LP Custom style, made in Japan 1988-90, ebony finish. This is a stunning take on the 1968 'Black Beauty' Les Paul Custom, made out of the Tokai factory in Japan. The Mint Collection series are very highly regarded for both historical accuracy and superb build quality; they're probably the most 'collectable' line of Greco LPs. This one has kept all the original parts, it's in incredible condition and looks sublime. The slim 60s style neck is perfectly comfortable; it feels brilliant and the attention to detail in the build really shines through. The tone is huge: the neck pickup is thick, saucy and rich, and the bridge adds some delightful crunch and chime; it's magical. This is an excellent guitar, it really does tick all the boxes; LPs don't get a whole lot better than this.

Cosmetic condition notes: minor finish wear. There's a couple of minor scratches on the back in the middle, but really nothing major, just a few dimples around the place. The gold hardware has some discolouration and pitting, and the binding has yellowed with age. Pretty remarkable shape really. Overall: excellent condition (8.5/10)
