1978 Greco EG600 Custom Triple Pickup Vintage Electric Guitar w/ Maxon PAFs & Case, Japan, Ace Frehley
1978 Greco EG600 Custom Triple Pickup Vintage Electric Guitar w/ Maxon PAFs & Case, Japan, Ace Frehley
Up for sale, a 1978 Greco EG600 in collector-grade 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This expertly crafted Japanese guitar clearly takes its cues from a triple-pickup ‘70s LP Custom, and while this Greco falls squarely under the umbrella of the famed "lawsuit" guitars in a general sense, no action was ever taken against Greco for these very faithful iterations.
Produced at the Fujigen factory just prior to Greco's Super Real line of instruments, this EG600 has a distinctive look designed to capitalize on Ace Frehley's now iconic triple pickup Cherry Sunburst Custom, with Greco going so far as to name check Frehley in their catalog description. The guitar features a “sandwich” mahogany body with a carved two-piece white sycamore top, three-piece maple neck, and a trio of Maxon-made U-2000 humbuckers. Featuring double cream bobbins, these pickups deliver a great spin on the classic PAF tone, boasting ample harmonic content, great punch, and an overall full and rich tonal character, and there's plenty of bite and chime in the top end too. This EG600 is lightweight at 8lbs 1oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with low action, accurate intonation and 10-46 strings.
