The Story

1980 BB-1000 Metallic Blue

Talk about an absolute winner. This is a vintage 1980 Greco BB-1800 10-string guitar with a 'Bich' shape - built at the Fujigen factory in Japan during the infamous 'lawsuit' era. The guitar has a maple neck-thru construction, two double-cream DiMarzio pickups, and the same wraparound adjustable-saddle bridge which you would find on this guitars American-made counterpart. The guitar has the same control layout as well; two boost switches, Dual Sound coil taps and phase switching. There is one dent on the front of the body, with scattered scratches as well. There's some light tarnishing and rust on the hardware. The electronics are intact and functioning but it does have intermittent noises in the preamp section. original case with some fun Greco paperwork included!

Includes: Original Case and Greco Paperwork
