Produced concurrently with the Ibanez Musician instruments at Japan’s venerable Fuijgen factory, this Greco is an expertly crafted instrument, featuring neck-through construction and active electronics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe seven-ply neck is comprised of maple and walnut, and the body wings are crafted from a mahogany core sandwiched between two pieces of sen ash. This guitar is exceptionally resonant and lively, with a complex acoustic response representative of the various tonewoods; there’s ample articulation and glassy snap, with the midrange heft and authoritative note attack of ash, all translated well through the original PU-3D soapbar humbuckers. These pickups are rich and full, with a particularly vocal, sonorous quality, spongy low mids, and a dynamic feel. The active electronics enable a huge amount of tonal sculpting precision, with a three-band EQ and independent Phase controls. This GO1200 Speed Way weighs 9lbs 11oz, professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike's Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Wood: Maple\/walnut (seven-ply)\u003cbr\u003e-Shape: Slender C, measuring .790” 1st fret, .915” 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e-Fretboard: Striped ebony, oblong inlays\u003cbr\u003e-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear\u003cbr\u003e-Scale Length: 24 3\/4\"\u003cbr\u003e-Nut: 1 11\/16”, bone\/brass\u003cbr\u003e-Headstock: Ash veneer, brass \"Speed way\" truss rod cover\u003cbr\u003e-Tuners: MH900G\u003cbr\u003e-Serialization: I78-prefix (September, 1978)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Wood: Sen ash\/mahogany\u003cbr\u003e-Pickups: PU-3D soapbar humbucker x2\u003cbr\u003e-Controls: Volume, Tone, EQ On\/Off toggle, Bass\/Middle\/Treble EQ (center detent x3), Phase toggle x2, Three-way pickup selector\u003cbr\u003e -Harness: Untouched solder, full-size Japanese pots date to ‘78, active electronics powered by 9V\u003cbr\u003e-Hardware: Gibraltar-style bridge and tailpiece with brass sustain block insert, gold-plated cavity covers, aluminum EQ knobs\u003cbr\u003e-Plastics: Sure Grip knobs, cream pickup covers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe gloss Natural finish highlights the grain in the ash body wings, and cosmetic wear is limited to a few minor dings and finish scratches.
