The Greco company started building guitars in Japan in 1960. Japanese concert tours in the 1960s by bands like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin created a ravenous demand for affordable Fender and Gibson-styled guitars amongst the young Japanese fans. Greco stepped up to fill that demand, and made more high quality "lawsuit" copies of the major guitar brands' designs than all other Japanese guitar companies combined. And while no legal action was taken against Greco for these guitars, Gibson did commission the same factory to make their "Orville" line of instruments which were exclusively sold within Japan!

Get ready to unleash your inner rock legend with the Greco EGC68-50 Les Paul Custom. This guitar is a true powerhouse. Let's start with the body. Crafted from high-quality mahogany, the EG68-50 boasts a classic Violin Sunburst finish that oozes timeless elegance. This finish showcases the natural wood grain and adds a touch of vintage allure. 

Moving up to the neck, you'll find a smooth and comfortable Mahogany with Rosewood Fingerboard combination. This pairing offers excellent playability and ensures that each note rings out with clarity and sustain. The Rosewood fingerboard adds a touch of warmth to your playing, while the Mahogany neck provides a solid and familiar feel.

Now, let's talk about the heart of this beast—the pickups. Equipped with PAF Humbuckers, the Greco EGC68-50 is ready to deliver those iconic, searing tones that defined rock music of the '70s. From bluesy bends to aggressive riffs, these pickups capture every nuance of your playing, allowing you to express yourself with soulful melodies or unleash a sonic assault.

Condition: Some minor dings and scratches in the front. Some finish swirling and hardware wear. A few more significant dings and scratches in the back that you'd expect to see on a 40 year old guitar. 
Playability: Straight neck, no buzzing, fret wear but no major pitting or denting, action is comfortable, no issues with electronics
