greco lp fret ends?

frankthomson · Aug 22, 2008

hi
i have a 1991-ish *not for export* LP, MIJ, and was wondering
if they had *normal* fret ends or Gibbo-style white binding fretends?

thx :wink:

It's only the very high-end later Grecos that have fret edge binding

frankthomson · Aug 22, 2008

I did say 'later Grecos' Mint Collection models like this Gold-Top. Some of the earlier ones esp late '70's had FEB.

Both my '82 Mint Collection Grecos have fret edge binding. Both are EG-500 series and not high end, but supposedly these have holdover necks from the Super Real era w/ fatter neck profiles. I've since had one (the EG57-50) refretted with proper jumbo frets so the nibs are gone. No matter, I don't prefer one over the other.

In my defence I did say 'later' :wink: '82 is a very early Mlnt Collection. I had an '84 EG-70 that didn't have FEB.

I have a 1980 Greco Super Power Custom, a very good guitar although not a high end guitar, and it has FEB.
