Greco F-250 dreadnought, made in Japan 1973-4, natural finish. Oh boy, check out that stunning rosewood on the back... delicious. These old Martin style Grecos don't attract the same fanfare as their electric contemporaries, but they're surely worthy of some esteem. This is in amazing shape for a 70s guitar, there's really barely a mark on it. The rosewood on offer on this one is really quite delightful, the back especially looks amazing. The tone has mellowed to a thick, warm and loud chime over the decades; this one has a little more mids and lows than some of the other Greco dreads we've had through. If you're after a handy little vintage acoustic to brighten your days and write your tunes on, this one has a few hits in there somewhere I'm sure.
