1975 Greco SB-850 Suzi Quatro Thunderbird Bass (Brown Sunburst)

1975 Greco SB-850 Suzi Quatro Thunderbird Bass (Brown Sunburst)The most expensive bass model featured in Greco's 1975 catalog, the SB 850 was the Suzi Quatro model Thunderbird bass. Quatro was contacted by Greco during a Japanese tour in 1974 where they offered to build her a bass to her specs as a gift. After delivering her initial model, they took the same specs and put the SB 850 into a small run of production (making them a very rare model). Mahogany body with a maple neck and a 20 fret bound rosewood

you can plug your Les Paul Jr

Sound: Hot & heavy Humbucker fat tone

Select Between Internal & Speaker Load

And with the addition of an octave-up feature

After a decade of rapid versioning and tiers of the Explorer

3-way selector switch

Flame maple top with a mahogany back

The result is an unbeatable combination of style

It's as much of a weapon as it is a guitar and i'd like it gone before someone gets hurt

the action at the 12th fret on the low E string is around 3mm and it would benefit from a neck reset (hence the price) however it plays nicely as it sits as a loungeroom guitar

Part of the NJ series of Japanese made guitars from the 1980's

Neck:  Set w/Hardrock Maple
