Here is a Greco TC500, a lawsuit copy from arguably Greco's best period. It is, obviously, a copy of the Fender® Custom Telecaster® - which Fender made between 1970 and 1981 - also often known colloquially as the Keith Richards model due to the humbucker neck pickup. These also have a contoured back, like a Strat®, making them more comfortable to play.

This type of Tele® has long been a favourite of mine, as the range of tones available is extremely wide. They're a perfect stage guitar - everything from the ultimate country tele twang right through to the coolest jazz sounds are available, and, of course, some of the best rock sounds known to man!

This Made in Japan guitar is in superb condition, with just a couple of minor paint chips on the front edges on the top and bottom cutaways and a few minor dents on the edges - check out the 'more pictures' link below. The neck is superb (as these MIJ always seem to be) and frets have a good 80% life left yet. Weight is just 3.1kg.

This guitar came from Japan without a case. A hard case can be supplied at cost, or a free gig bag will be included.
