1978 Japanese-built Greco EG-800 Custom in classic ebony finish produced at the renowned Fujigen factory during the sought-after lawsuit era. This upper-tier model combines professional-grade craftsmanship with the iconic Les Paul Custom aesthetics.

The guitar shows natural signs of age and use, but overall remains very clean and well maintained. Gold hardware displays subtle patina and minor discoloration typical for its age — entirely cosmetic. Original components, including period-correct Maxon humbuckers and electronics, appear intact.

At 4.8 kg, this is a substantial, resonant instrument with excellent sustain. The mahogany body and set mahogany neck provide warmth and midrange density, while the carved maple top adds clarity and articulation. The Macassar ebony fingerboard offers bright attack with slightly warmer tonal nuance, perfect for classic rock, hard rock, blues, or heavier styles.
