This Greco SE-600 was produced in the days when Japanese culture and discipline ruled the production lines - no interference or input from USA until the early 1980s. This is why Grecos are still so playable, and so capable of being excellent instruments for another 45 years. Dependable.
 
SE-600s changed in style from year to year - this one is a true 1970's character. Big headstock, pretty heavy at 4.5kg, and very faithful sounds from the PU-100 pick-ups, and rosewood being a costly option over the standard maple. This is a nice thick slab too.
 
The 600 had a 3-way switch (nice DM30 units - will last forever) and the parallel positions can be found with a bit of practice. The MH-80 tuners are great quality and continue to provide excellent service, as does the vintage style tremolo; which comes with its original arm.
 
The white finish has faded gracefully to a creamy shade, and there are a few marks that remind you it is 47 years old.
 
A no-nonsense vintage guitar that is easily as good to play as it looks.
