Greco Custom (White)

[Darth Vader]

Hi guys, what do you think of this?
Vintage Japan? Or something else...?

I guess mid 1990s due to no serial number and Greco logo type. Maybe not Japan manufacture.

I saw this one, and the headstock has the six triangles, which I've come to believe is the mark of an MIK. I wish I could play an MIK to feel and hear the quality compred to a Gibson LP. I've never hd the pleasure of playing a Greco. Someday...

Thanks guys. The guitar sold for USD455. (not to me)
I was a bit sceptical because the specs pointed to a non MIJ guitar.
No MOP headstock inlay.
No FEB
No S/N

With shipping (and excluding customs, since that's variable), this guitar was under $700USD. It appears in good condition, but it's hard to know if the electronics are comparable to other guitars at that price. Anyone here have experience with MIK (or non-MIJ) Grecos to be able to compare? If the sound is good, an MIK can be a good value.
