    Default I just bought a Greco, need some info

    Bought my first acoustic yesterday, a Greco f-120 for $100 at the Ventura Pawnshop, and it plays and sounds sweet, one of the warmest sounding acoustics I've played in a while. The thing is, I know nothing about Greco's, I know they make decent LP copies, but how about acoustics? It looks like a Martin copy, so who knows.

    I don't know a lot, but Greco was the Asian equivalent of Ibanez in the late 70s. Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick had a couple of Icemans manufactured in the same place that had "Greco" on the headstock. From everything that I've been able to find out, they were well-made instruments. Everyone knows that Ibanez in the mid to late 70s were notorious for making better Gibsons than the genuine article.
