I’m keen to add to my guitar collection and looking at a les Paul. I don’t want to drop thousands on a us model, not keen on a studio and love stuff that is a little different or vintage. Thought you guys might have some advice. I’ve been looking at Greco’s but a tokai has caught my eye. Problem with Australia is that while there is heaps of Greco lps I think most are the lower end models. Nothing in the super real / mint collection or 1200’s or similar models. I’ve missed the boat on getting a bargain as well as prices have gone up here in the last few years on Japan vintage gear.
Any suggestions on Greco lp models I should be looking for?
Here is a few that are currently available that I’m interested in
