1990 Greco FA-80 (Gibson ES-175) CUSTOM ORDER MADE (Flame Maple Body) ... "Clear Sound Project" ... Blonde LAWSUIT Made in Japan + ORIGINAL Hard Case

Some guitars walk in… and immediately steal the spotlight.

This FA-80 is one of the most stunning Japanese hollowbodies we’ve ever had: fully flamed maple on every surface, insane 3D figuring, and that unmistakable “Clear Sound Project” openness and resonance.

It can go head-to-head with any Gibson ES-175 on the planet.

Built in October 1990, this is one of those guitars from the post-lawsuit golden era where Japan quietly out-engineered the USA.

If you love ES-175s, this FA-80 is exactly the kind of instrument that made Gibson nervous: warmer, livelier, insanely resonant, and built with woods Gibson USA simply weren’t using anymore.

Warm, velvet-smooth jazz tone.

Flatwound strings.

Full hollow.

Ridiculously good feel.
