A classic, ebony dream right is the palm of your hands...Here we have a 1979 Greco EG-700 that is candy on the eyes and sweet bliss on the ears. Produced in Japan by famed luthiers, these guitars are known for being top-tier replicas of their Gibson counterparts. The moment you take this baby out the bag and plug her in, prepare to be playing straight into the night. It has plenty of growl and bite when pushed, when clean... these Maxon U-2000 Pickups are as sweet as apple pie and just as warm. Cosmetically this guitar is in killer condition for her age with only minor bumps and bruises. There are some dings, dents, scuffs and scratches that are typical to a guitar this age that simply come with the territory of being played, but this killer LP has been pretty well taken care of for nearly 46 years. All this mojo will allow you to rock out worry free. It has just been setup for optimal tone and is ready to rock!

About Greco:

The Greco brand of “replica” guitars was started by the Kanda Shokai Corporation in 1966, and is widely considered to be one of the best. Fueled by the popularity of bands like Led Zeppelin and other British invasion artists, the company was producing copies of Gibson’s Les Paul Standard by the early 1970s using scaled drawings derived from Gibson catalogs, and photos of musicians using real Gibson guitars. The company even enlisted the services of popular Japanese guitarist Shigeru Narumo to supervise its production of the Greco line, which gave a tremendous boost to its sale of Les Paul replicas.

By the mid-to-late 1970s, the company was making a Les Paul copy that rivaled the craftsmanship of its authentic U.S. counterpart—at prices far below those of the real McCoy. This 1975 Greco EG-700 is an exquisite example of those guitars. It features a beautiful Cherry Sunburst finish, set-neck construction with medium tenon joint, and gold top-hat control knobs. it’s a stunning example of Japanese six-string ingenuity from the 1970s.

This guitar is professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability. It has low action with no buzzing or dead spots and is an absolute joy to play. It has been deep cleaned and detailed. All guitars will arrive looking and playing great. The frets have been leveled / dressed / polished and the fingerboard was cleaned. (Unfinished Rosewood and Ebony boards get treated with Fret Doctor - a proprietary all natural oil that is the best on the market) It has brand new strings, the action was adjusted, the intonation is spot on and it plays excellent. All the electronics work flawlessly.

Simply put “good enough” is not good enough for The Guitar Dude’s standards. We try and make every guitar be at its absolute BEST to deliver on our promise.

Terms For Returns & Re-Stocking Fee’s

We recognize and accept a 7 day return policy as per Reverb guidelines, BUT intentions of the return must be communicated in writing within 3 day of receiving the guitar as indicated by the tracking. Unless the guitar is not as described, ORIGINAL & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS WILL NOT BE REFUNDED.

Please note that we record demo videos to make sure our guitars go out exactly as we describe them with zero issues. We understand that feeling comfortable is vital to the purchase of a guitar/bass so in any case, additional measurements or in hand descriptions are available prior to purchase/shipping. Thats said, guitars travel a great distance some times and in transit things can happen. Also guitars acclimate to new environments and this can cause a need for a new set up or minor adjustment. It is acceptable and normal if there is for instance a tiny bit of buzzing or the need to adjust a truss rod. We are in south Florida and if you are in a colder or less humid environment it is almost to be expected. Please read our feedback and see what our customers say. The guitar MUST BE RETURNED IN THE EXACT CONDITION it was advertised/received or it is subject to additional costs & or repair fees. We are not a big chain shop, I hope you understand.
