Just to say that I won't be replying to comments with what I consider to be the "best" sounding of these 3 guitars. This is very much about what you think. I will say that I have used all 3 at a full volume rehearsal and all sounded great in battle conditions. I'd be happy to use any of them at a gig.

I like the sound of all three. I liked the Gibson the most, as it seems to have a smidge more clarity than the other two. Which is odd for me, as I usually champion the Japanese made guitars, but sometimes Gibson lives up to it's reputation. What I want to know is, which one feels the best to you, or the most like "home"?

I’d argue also that a large percentage of the sound /tone is in the players hands ?

What I take away from this is just how good the vintage sounds, particularly the neck. Hard for me to tell which was better between the Greco and Gibson.

My son and I have 2 Greco's, my son has a 1979 Greco RG 750 Standard with U1000 stock pick ups and then we share an 80's Greco SG Standard loaded with Geppetto Camelot PAF. One was $700 & $800 and after playing those we don't find a need for a Gibson and it actually kind of killed the vibe of buying a budget guitar for a very long while I recently I've been coming back and looking at budget Gibson style guitars and I'm really liking the Vintage

I’m a big fan of Greco guitars, I have to say. But, for the price you can pick up used Vintage for, they’re difficult to beat for the budget. I’ve had zero issues with the ones I’ve had and they all play and sound good. I’ve actually put Wilkinson pickups and bridges on other guitars, so there’s the great hardware they have too.

Interesting! I used my headphones for this. All three sounded fine individually but in comparison the V100 lost out in all pickup positions. It sounded, "rougher" to my ears. Far less difference between Greco and Gibson but the Greco seemed to have more mid-range, "fluteyness" which I really liked. Overall, I'd say the best one would be the one you have most fun playing and that the tonal differences aren't that important.

I listened carefully and decided what sound my ears gravitated too the most I had a good set of studio headphone on and closed my eyes, Vintage V100 just found it smoother close second Gibson , third was the Greco, terrific comparison

Thank ya, appreciate you checking it out. Always interesting doing these kind of comparisons. There’s not a huge amount of difference to be heard in a full mix and I guess it just comes down to what people find more pleasing to their ear.

On my present budget it would be the Vintage all the way! Impressive guitar for the price. Close between the Greco and Gibson. Greco is a better deal I’d say.

Yeah, that’s something I’m definitely going to mention when I do the final part of this series, the budget that someone has to get a guitar. A new Gibson 50’s Standard is above what I would spend on a guitar, or be allowed to spend on a guitar, lol 😂. The Vintage is crazy good for under £200 used, which I got it for. But, I guess if someone has the budget which allows them to drop £2.5k on a 50’s standard, then that’s what they would go for. You don’t need to spend that to get a great guitar, but you’d be unlikely to buy 5 new Vintage V100’s instead. If that makes sense?

All very much within the ballpark of each other, the Gibson I thought had just that little extra top end that cut through, other than that youd be hard pressed faulting any of them.

Alright Dunsy just bit dizzy 🍻really enjoyed the vid, nothing wrong with any of the guitars but I heard the Gibson had more punch on all levels mate, brighter tone throughout, but as I said they all sound good, Vintage good for practise Greco and Gibson for a gig mate. Have a dandy day Dunsy 🤘

Thanks really interesting video. My only comment would be that your Vintage may not reflect current production V100s, which may be worse or better, or indeed the same.I mention this as I am thinking of getting a Vintage V100PDF.

Not a huge amount in it. The vintage is a little more fizzy sounding especially on the neck pickup but considering the price differences the sound differences are not huge❤

It’s all a bit of a lottery . I have two modern standards 50s and 60s and there isn’t a lot of difference .Two 50s inspired by Gibson epiphone and one sounds much brighter than the other , both supposedly the exact same guitars one gold top the other cherry . One was a b stock may have been a pick up swap I’m thinking because the difference se are markedly noticeable..

I see them pop up occasionally on Zenmarket for around $800 to $1000. You’d need to factor in shipping and import tax though. Worth keeping an eye on. But Greco prices have gone crazy on some models over the last 5 years.

The whole point is .. if you start again from the vid chit chat !! ?? is the Greco pu's 4 times superior to the Vintage ? is the Gibson pu's 8 times better ? Are the Gibsons twice as good as the Grecos, this is the point ! And the answer is no, the Vintage brand all over is superb value for money .. or is the Vintage a fair price and the others exaggerated, especially the Gibson .. I have a vintage and 3 Les Paul's but never ever played let alone owned a Greco.. it's like Addidas, Wrangler, coca cola .. you pay a premium as those brands have proven over time and sales they are very successful.. small margins can cost large amounts.. Do a blind test on it Dunsy, and everyone who has a Verdict put their money on it, ?? £20 per comment/answer 😉

Definitely going to do a blind test in one of the videos - like many folks I’m totally guilty of hearing using my eyes, lol 😂. I’ve used all 3 guitars at rehearsal and they all sound great in a band setting, I just figured it would be interesting to hear them all recorded on a lead setting (a Fender Bandmaster with a TS in front).

The neck binding has been replaced, the bridge and tailpiece swapped for the ones from a 1979 SG2000 and a new nut as well. Hoping to have it back soon.

1900 seems like a lot if it’s not one of the original 70’s run. That said I’ve not tried any of the newer models. I’m still toying with the idea of getting my one completely restored, but that would probably take it up to about £1300-£1500 total investment for me.
