Founded in the mid-1960s, Greco quickly rose to prominence during Japan’s guitar boom of the following decade, producing an extensive range of instruments that often echoed classic American designs. Many of these models matched or even surpassed their Western counterparts in craftsmanship and playability, cementing Greco’s reputation for exceptional quality and value. Today, the brand is highly regarded among players seeking authentic vintage character without the high price tag.
This 1988 Greco White Falcon is a stunning Japanese-made interpretation of Gretsch’s most renowned model, showcasing the company’s meticulous approach to vintage reproduction. It features a full 17" wide hollow maple body finished in elegant white with gold hardware and intricate dark pearl binding, complemented by a maple neck and bound ebony fingerboard. Equipped with Filter’Tron-style humbuckers, it offers a wide spectrum of bright, articulate, and resonant tones reminiscent of the original White Falcon’s classic voice.
This guitar is in very condition, with very little play wear to speak of, and is internally and externally original. This guitar has been given a full service by our luthiers at the Vintage Instrument Workshop, and includes a 2 year warranty.
