The 3-pickup in the center is the new baby. 1982 Greco EGC-57-60 (i think?). Brought from australia for a steal...there was evidently a neck repair but it must be one of the best ever, because there is no seam or any evidence whatsoever that I found.
Also has some cosmetic dings on the back, but the guitar is almost 40 years old, so I don't mind.
The pickups are actually pretty good, I may leave them stock, at least for a while. But the JB is such an amazing pickup (for me) in a les paul, I'm very temped to throw one in. As good as the stock pickups are, they're a bit "flabby"(?) and a touch underpowered for my style/liking. Very good PAF/vintagey sound, but I like a little more power and tightness like one would find in a Duncan C5 or JB
I was worried because it's a "57", that the neck would be huge, but actually it's really nice...not super shreddy thin, just a nice medium. Quite heavy guitar too..
Also, if anyone can figure out or tell me how these controls work, I'd appreciate it :laugh2:
It's flanked by my 1976 Greco and my 2015 Edwards, and an 06 trusty tele in the background that I've had since I was in my teens.
