Greco PE-520 1973 - Walnut

A stunning example of early Japanese craftsmanship, this 1973 Greco PE-520 is a lawsuit-era gem that delivers rich sustain, warm resonance, and killer playability. Featuring a mahogany body with a carved maple top, this guitar produces fat, punchy mids and a smooth high end, perfect for everything from bluesy cleans to thick, overdriven leads. The cutaway makes for effortless upper-fret access, while the original humbuckers dish out vintage-voiced clarity and warmth. Built at the dawn of Greco’s golden era, this PE-520 embodies the quality and attention to detail that made these guitars legendary.

Though it has natural signs of aging, this guitar has been freshly refretted, ensuring buttery smooth playability with no buzzing or dead spots. The finish has aged beautifully, giving it an authentic vintage patina, while the hardware and electronics are all in excellent working order. The neck is straight, action is comfortable, and the frets have plenty of life, making this a true player’s guitar that’s ready for stage or studio. If you’re after a high-quality vintage Japanese Les Paul-style guitar with fresh frets, stunning tone, and effortless playability, this Greco is the one.
