Hi all first NGD for a while.
So on sat I met with Ellwood, we did a trade for my usa strat for a 90s Greco, great guitar and brillaint hour spent playing some of the best guitars I have ever played.
I was bored on Sunday eve so did some in depth research on Greco (im a bit sad) and it transpired mine was a Korean one not an MIJ, Which Nic was told it was when he bought it ( you wouldnt know unless you really really looked hard!)
Nic was just as bemused as I was, so we met up again,
I was intending to swap it for the Greco custom he had but when I got their he gave me the pick if his Grecos, I tried to refuse but he was having none of it!
I played them all and chose this amazing Japanese EG 75 tokai made Greco, it's honestly the nicest les paul type I have played and owned.
Nic even gave me a new case and refused any payment for it!
So first thing is I want to thanks
@ellwood again for such a generous offer, being a single dad of two means guitars like this don't come to me this often so I really am I'm his debt, definately made my month!

As I’ve said many time on these here pages (particularly when members jealous of his buying spree’s start sniping), @Ellwood is a gent and an asset to the forum -we need more like him.
I assumed all Greco's were made by Fujigen Gakki.
Why would they also be made by their competitors Tokai?
Interested to learn more if known.
BTW HNGD!
I bought my first MIJ LP from @Limehouse_Blues so he might be a decent source of advice!
Glad to see you're going to join the club!
@Strangefan - lovely guitar. Nice one.
@ellwood - we need to talk!
