Haha love your dogs :D. Could you tell me if there is a big difference between a Greco LP and a Gibson LP? Because I'm thinking on buying a Greco.
well, it has a maple neck like the Gibsons from 1976 to 1984
the specs depend on the model and year
mine is a 1978 EG900, tobacco sunburst plain maple top finish, like a '58 les paul standard, but with the maple neck, stock dimarzio PAFs, shitety Greco tuners, quality mahogany (not sure if it's sapele, khaya, or some west indian variety, but certainly not honduran, although that's a possibility), nice looking brazilian rosewood fretboard
the later EG900's from early 80's supposedly have nitro finishes, but mine is poly, like the EG700, or maybe it's some sort of mixed poly + nitro finish like Edwards does today... gotta do the acetone test to figure it out
can't compare it directly to my '73 les paul custom, as they have pretty different specs, but it does sound like a les paul should
I also had an '81 les paul standard with maple neck, and it was bassier and slightly heavier
the Greco sounds better than one that for sure, much more alive, but the lp std had the shitety stock Tim Shaw pickups, so that's hardly a fair comparison
the custom sounds darker and deeper
the only thing that bothers me about it is the sticky glossy feel in the neck
I wish it had a worn naturally reliced neck like my custom (that also has the thinnest neck I've ever seen in a les paul)
