Greco EG-600 Ace Frehley Triple Humbucker Les Paul

Greco EG-600 Ace Frehley Triple Humbucker Les Paul

Without a doubt the most versatile of pickup configurations, the triple humbucker Les Paul with its added middle pickup adds fantastic versatility and expands the tonal palette significantly. One of the rarer models from the Greco catalog, the EG-600 was Greco's not-so-signature triple pickup LP with a clear nod to one particular member of a band that liked to wear excessive makeup. Made in 1996, this particular one came to us as a husk but had good bones and was the perfect candidate for a hot-rodded restoration. The following modifications/restorative measures were taken;

New set of triple cream pickups (DiMarzio PAF Pro x 2, DiMarzio PAF Master Bridge x 1) just as Ace would've wanted, 3 new pickup rings with all new screws, excessive strap pin holes plugged and sealed, loose binding repaired, 4 new CTS pots and Switchcraft switch with new wiring loom with custom control configuration (individual volume for each pickup, master tone), 4 new control knobs, new Gotoh jack plate and Switchcraft jack socket, new cream backplates and screws, 1046s and a full setup.

'Standard' triple pickup wiring is pretty dysfunctional so we opted for a custom control layout that gives much more control over each pickup. Apart from these changes the guitar is in great condition; original frets, original body and neck with no structural cracks, breaks or modifications. Price is reflective of the modifications (these go for $2K in original condition), guitar comes with original chipboard case.
