 I think Greco needs a lesson from Gibson on how to properly make black hardware for a bass  ;)

Odd crack in the body, and a crack apparent at the neck joint...? (are these set or thru?)

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

So that you'll have an option to polish off the black to discover the chrome hidden underneath.

  ;D


 I probably would do that..........
This isn't the first time I've seen one of these with the black hardware looking so bad, love it or not the black never looked like that on any of my Gibsons.
