Description: 

A 1978 Greco SE700 Early Sixties model in very clean condition. Although labeled "early sixties" that's a bit of a misnomer as the specs are a dead on copy of '68/'69 era Strat with the large CBS style headstock but still with the heel adjust, basically the white Hendrix Strat. Body shows some very minor surface marks and dings but is overall in excellent shape. Neck shows a couple very small dings but they cannot be felt when playing and otherwise is in great shape. Neck shows some light wear along the edges but is otherwise very clean. Fretboard is in great shape and frets show minimal wear with no issues with buzzing or dead spots. Hardware shows some signs of age and some pitting/oxidization but is overall in great shape and all works perfectly. Electronics work perfectly and original Maxon Excel P-119 pickups sound great and are on the slightly hotter side of typical vintage style strat pickup (measureing about 7.3k each). A great playing vintage Strat from Greco that would give any Fender a run for its money. Has been fully inspected by our tech and ready for a new home. Includes original hard case, vibrato arm, and bridge cover. See below for a list of specs and info.

The 1978 Greco SE700 "Early Sixties" is a highly revered, premium vintage Stratocaster copy manufactured in Japan by the legendary Fujigen Gakki factory. Positioned as a higher-tier model during the golden era of Japanese guitar building, it is famous for outperforming many of its contemporary late-70s Fender CBS counterparts at a fraction of the price. Despite the "Early Sixties" designation engraved on the headstock to signify its 1960s-style rosewood fretboard construction, it uniquely pairs that look with a large late 60s CBS-style headstock.

  • Body Material: Sen (Japanese Ash) or Alder, providing excellent sustain and a solid mid-low resonance.
  • Neck & Fingerboard: Maple neck with a slim U-profile or comfortable slim-C profile, paired with a Rosewood fretboard.
  • Pickups: Three premium original Greco PU-119 "Excel" single-coils known for clear, dynamic, and glassy vintage Strat tones.
  • Electronics: Standard 5-way selector switch (an upgrade over the 3-way switches found on lower Greco SE models) with 1 Volume and 2 Tones.
  • Hardware: High-quality Gotoh tuners and a vintage-style tremolo bridge

Gorgeous!
Size: Medium, Color: Rose Gold
I love this purse, but I think it's appropriate mostly for evening use. As another reviewer has already said, it is more on the coppery side than the rose, but it is still beautiful, so I awarded it five stars. It is very high quality, and it arrived very quickly. I don't think I'll take it to synagogue, though. I think this is more of a date night or special occasion purse. It would be great for dinner dates, concerts (like the symphony or the opera), weddings, proms, etc. It's not something that would pair well with jeans or something you'd take to a picnic. It would make a lovely gift, and it's big enough to hold my phone, lip gloss, and a credit card. You don't want to put too much in it because it looks best flat.

Lovely!
Size: Medium, Color: Bronze
Beautiful bag. I purchased a used like new to save some money and the bag I received was in perfect shape. It includes a chain strap as well. It's a pretty large bag and the envelope flap closure is pretty and it was snug enough that I didn't feel like I was going to lose anything out of the bag.
