This vintage made in Japan Greco EGS56-65 plays and sounds great! This one has had a few modifications including a custom body contour on the back of the body and a humbucker mounted in the bridge position. The neck pickup is the original "Hot Lick" P90 and the neck profile has a comfortable "C" shape.
This guitar does show some cosmetic wear from over the years that includes various surface scratches, scuffs, and dents throughout the body with additional dings along the back of the neck and headstock. There are also two broken off strap button screws inside the back of the body and a custom body contour had been carved out by a previous owner. The bridge pickup cavity had also been widened to fit a bridge humbucker. The frets exhibit normal play wear for their age but otherwise still have plenty of life along the neck and the electronics work as they should. The truss rod still functions and turns with plenty of room in both directions.
Along with the body modifications, the bridge humbucker is a replacement. There is not a model listed on the bridge humbucker, but it is hotter coming in at 15.11K. The strap button was at one point moved to the back as shown, but it has been returned to the top horn.
