1980 Greco Super Sound EG800GS – The Golden-Era Japanese “’56 Burst” Killer That Flatters Gibson With Pure Mojo, Creamy P-90 Tone, and Stage-Ready Fire!


They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery… and this 1980 Greco Super Sound EG800GS is the ultimate love letter to a classic 1956 Gibson Les Paul Standard. Built during Greco’s legendary “Golden Era,” this EG800GS was painstakingly crafted by Japanese luthiers who nailed every detail — the look, the feel, the tone, and that unmistakable late-’50s Kalamazoo magic — all at a fraction of the vintage Gibson price. If you’ve been chasing that warm, woody, singing Les Paul vibe without the collector’s markup, this beauty is your ticket to tone heaven.


Picture it: a breathtaking double gold finish that still glows with rich, vintage luster and serious attitude. Tons of mojo and wear. The carved solid maple top sits proudly over a resonant mahogany body and mahogany neck with a long tenon joint for insane sustain and punch. Topped with a high-quality rosewood fretboard, this guitar delivers that perfect balance of warm, crisp, and powerful tone that made the ’56 LP legendary — thick, harmonically rich chords, creamy leads that sing forever, and dynamic response that feels alive in your hands.


Under the hood? Pure fire:

- Smoking-hot P-90 pickups — raw, gritty, and full of that classic bite and growl

- Vintage Paper-in-oil tone caps — for the silky, creamy smoothness that vintage fans obsess over

- Original Volume & Tone controls, Tune-O-Matic bridge with stop tailpiece, and vintage-style tuners

- All the classic appointments that scream “this is the real deal”


Plug this thing in and you’ll swear you’re holding a ’56 Goldtop. From buttery cleans that sparkle, to mid-range bite that cuts through any band, to overdriven roar with endless sustain — it’s everything you love about a vintage Les Paul, wrapped in Japanese craftsmanship at its absolute peak.


Real-world condition loaded with honest vintage vibes and player-friendly charm:

- Cool wear and tear on the top — natural, tasteful playwear that adds serious mojo and authentic ’80s roadhouse character without killing the killer gold glow

- Pretty clean back with just a handful of tiny nicks — barely noticeable and all part of the lived-in story

- Overall player-friendly cosmetic condition that screams “been loved and gigged,” that looks and plays like a show-stopper


This Greco is dialed in, stage-ready, and studio-worthy right out of the box — waiting for the right player to sling it over their shoulder and take it on a musical adventure. It has all the characteristics, appeal, and legendary tone of a 1956 Gibson LP Standard… but with that extra Greco mojo that makes it feel like home the second you pick it up.


These early-’80s Super Sound EG800GS models are getting rarer every year, especially in this double-gold glory with original P-90s and this much soul. If you want a guitar that turns heads, stops conversations, and delivers authentic ’56 Les Paul tone and vibe without breaking the bank — this one is your unicorn.


Serious players only. She’s ready to rock, ready to record, and ready to make you smile every single time you plug in.


Message me right now to bring this beauty home before she’s gone. This one won’t last. 🔥
