Looking for vintage MIJ tone without the vintage price tag? This 1979 Greco EG-500 delivers classic Les Paul-style sustain and punch with a two-piece mahogany body, bound maple top, and a pair of original Greco humbuckers that serve up warm, articulate tones with plenty of bite. The three-piece maple neck with bound rosewood fingerboard feels substantial yet comfortable, and at 8lbs 11oz it strikes a great balance of resonance and playability. Honest playwear and tasteful aging give it true road-tested character, while the included SKB hardshell case keeps it protected and gig-ready. A killer way to add authentic late-'70s Japanese craftsmanship to your collection.
