It features the open-book headstock, a bell-shaped \"Standard\" truss rod cover and a semi-hollow body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe serial number J776310 on the back of the headstock decodes in Greco's month-letter format as October 1977 (J = October, 77 = 1977). The pickup back is stamped \"17924\", which reads as a September 1977 date code and matches the guitar's serial date. The body has an internal hollow (semi-hollow construction). The guitar carries no model sticker or model stamp, so it is listed here as an EG Series Standard type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e== SPECIFICATIONS ==\u003cbr\u003e- Brand: Greco\u003cbr\u003e- Model: EG Series (Les Paul Standard type, semi-hollow)\u003cbr\u003e- Year: 1977 (October, per serial J776310)\u003cbr\u003e- Country of Origin: Japan\u003cbr\u003e- Color: Brown Sunburst\u003cbr\u003e- Body: Semi-hollow (internal hollow confirmed)\u003cbr\u003e- Neck: Set neck\u003cbr\u003e- Fingerboard: Bound, trapezoid inlays\u003cbr\u003e- Headstock: Open-book style with \"Standard\" truss rod cover\u003cbr\u003e- Pickups: Two covered humbuckers (pickup back stamped 17924)\u003cbr\u003e- Controls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone\u003cbr\u003e- Switch: 3-way toggle (Rhythm\/Treble)\u003cbr\u003e- Bridge: Tune-o-matic style bridge with stop tailpiece\u003cbr\u003e- Tuners: Greco Guitar branded enclosed tuners\u003cbr\u003e- Weight: 3.75 kg (approx. 8.3 lbs)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e== CONDITION ==\u003cbr\u003eOverall: Very Good\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Body: Clean for its age, with relatively few scratches\u003cbr\u003e- Neck: Straight\u003cbr\u003e- Frets: Approximately 70-80% remaining\u003cbr\u003e- Hardware: No noticeable rust\u003cbr\u003e- Electronics: The volume and tone pots have some crackle (scratchy pots).
