New black beauty day! Greco 1990 Mint Collection!

[valvestate]

Finally received my new Greco 1990s open "O" Mint Collection LP! ! Weighs 4.2kg, solid body, beautiful inlays and with long neck tenon.

Really had a hard time deciding I should go with this or a 1978 Greco one but I'm glad I took this for just some better aesthetics, quality and playability! Thanks for all those who chimed in!

Any idea which exact model is this?

1990 fujigen made Greco ECG-700.

Looks real nice.

Thank you sooo much! So.... looking and reading on the internet, ECG-700 seems to be mostly those made in the 70s? They also made 90s models?

 

[El Greco]

Yes, they did! Actually it's an EGC-600! The EGC-700 was the three pickup model of the time. Looks great, enjoy!

Hi, Can or did you take a picture of the neck cavity looking up the neck. Just want to see if it's similar to mine.

Ps, Where are the wires that go to the selector switch on yours? Are they routed somewhere else on a Custom?

Haha El Greco is right !!! i'm not sure why i thought your guitar had 3 pups. I gotta start going a little easier on the liquor. I have the same guitar from '89.

No, the wiring channels are not routed different on a Custom! These guitars were just made in different factories! OP's was made in Terada factory, yours made by Fujigen!

Yep thats a certified beauty

It looks more like a Terada-made Greco to me with the routing. They are a lot cleaner than the Fujigens and have the routing done before the top is glued to the back.

That cavity looks Fujigen to me.

Looks like Neil Armstrong has left his boot print inside your control cavity the same as mine.

I'm guessing whoever painted your guitar painted mine as well. Virtually identical spraying pattern.
