Was thinking of buying this one, (if price is right).Looks rather nice.

Asked buyer for serial number, unfortunately there isn't one, so im guessing its Korean? As its an ebay sale doubt he is going to open it up and look inside for me.

Any help appreciated!

It looks like a Japanese Greco circa 1975. Usually pancake body with lower end models made from multiple pieces of wood including birch.

For that price I would get the guitar below, not mine, but for the money far better guitar than the greco gamble.

Thanks for reply.

How interesting 75? Thought it was an 80's one. Good nick for age, but agree it is a bit of a gamble.

Than Hagstrom looks nice, but looking for a black LP.

You're right, it is a Korean Greco Bob 1989/1990.
Split diamond, logo type and square nut combi are the dead give away.
 
Thanks for reply.

Are these any good? Wont get an opportunity to play it, so its a gamble!

Probably get it for ?300-?325? Not a bad price...but might get a decent jap one for not much more....

Worth mentioning, my priority is sound/looks/playability. Not fussed if it 2 piece or 3 piece etc
