Greco LGB-700 LP style bass, silver sparkle, made in Japan circa 2000. These don't come around often, seems like they were made for a year or two and that was it. The LP bass is one of those quirky kinda instruments that comes in and out of vogue; every now and again everyone seems to want one. This take on that shape has some practical appointments: bolt-on neck for stability with an easy-access joint, long scale to add some brightness and punch, hefty bridge and top notch Gotoh tuners for stability... it's got Japanese pragmatism all over it. The silver sparkle finish has yellowed to a light gold hue; it looks super cool and will surely love the stage. Tone wise, the three beefy soapbar style pickups deliver a heap of thick, juicy mids and lows. My favourite tone is to dial down the middle pickup but max out the neck and bridge pickups; that gives you a big fat thump with just a smidge of grindy goodness on the top. There's a lot to like here; it's a cool little oddity and would've been quite pricey new in it's day. You've already got silver pants to match, right?
