| 1982 Greco FA67-70 Model ES-175D Blond Replica w/OHSC $1,080.00 |
Here is the Greco FA-67-70 serail #1826181, it's a fantastic Jazz Box guitar made by Greco's custom shop in 1982.
This was one of the really great years for Greco guitars. Most Greco enthusiasts say their best guitars were made
between 1979 & 1982. I took a photo of the label inside, I couldn't quite focus clearly but if you look at it you'll see
the signature on the label. It's a custom model with the original tremolo; quite a rare version.
This is the first Greco guitar I've ever had with a signature on the label, it was made in the famous Fujigen-Gakki
shop and it shows. I also included a closeup of the fretboard fret edge binding, you'll only find binding like this on
the highest end guitars, it's so time consuming that it only goes on the best offerings of the best luthiers.
It's maple with a Honduras mahogany neck, weight is only 6.5 lbs. We're not sure what the pickups are as we didn't
take it apart, but they are really great, way above the offerings of most Jazz Boxes I've played. Condition is around
9/10, very good for a 26 year old guitar. It plays great, sounds great, looks great, what more can you ask for?
