Description

The FB-700 Vintage Firebird made in Japan by Greco

The Greco FB-700 Firebird is a high-quality, vintage-inspired electric guitar that captures the unique spirit of the classic Firebird design. Made in Japan by Greco late 1970s to early 1980s. With its reverse body shape and set neck construction, the FB-700 combines the iconic look and tone of the original Firebird models with Greco’s renowned craftsmanship. This guitar features mini-humbucker pickups, which deliver a sharp, punchy sound with a bit more clarity and definition compared to traditional humbuckers. The mahogany body and mahogany neck provide a warm, resonant tone, while the rosewood fingerboard adds smoothness and comfort for fast playing. Ideal for rock, blues, and heavy styles, the Greco FB-700 is a great choice for players looking for something a bit different, with a classic sound and a distinctive appearance.
