1967 Gibson ES-345TD
New picture set of a 1967 Sunburst Gibson ES-345TD electric guitar. 1967 was the peak year for the ES-345 (see ES-345 shipping figures), and Sunburst was the most available finish, although Cherry 345s actually outsold Sunburst in '67.

Epiphone Century E422T - page update
Page updates for the Epiphone Century 6-string thinline. Shipping totals and two new photosets. This guitar was launched in 1959 using numerous pre-merger Epiphone parts (see 1959 Epiphone Century) but by the 1960s was using the same components as the Gibson models made alongside it (see 1963 Epiphone Century).
1975 Gibson Marauder Promo Record
7 inch 45 rpm promo disk for the Gibson Marauder. Unlike the earlier Les Paul Recording / Triumph Bass flexi disk, this record is vinyl with a picture sleeve. It demonstrates the Marauder's versatility, both unaccompanied, and within a band, being played by Gibson employee/jazz guitarist Bruce Bolen in a range of styles. See also the main Gibson Marauder page
1976 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe (Wine Red)
New images of the Gibson Les Paul Deluxe. Sales of the Deluxe had been very good in the early 1970s, but by the mid 70s sales had dropped significantly. In fact 1976 was a sales low-point. See also Les Paul Deluxe shipping figures, and general information
Vox V.G.12 Semi-Acoustic 12-String
This was one of the last VOX guitars of the 1960s; introduced in 1969, this Japanese-made twelve-string guitar was part of the VOX Giant range, and was an obvious copy of the Gretsch Country Gentleman, remaining true with regard controls, fingerboard inlays, gold-plated hardware and painted-on f-holes. It didn't last long, and is somewhat of a VOX rarity.
1980 Gibson Catalogue
The first Gibson catalogue of the 80s was fairly substantial; 58 pages, with a different instrument on each page: 39 electrics, 10 acoustics, 4 basses, 4 banjos and a mandolin. From the prestigeous Kalamazoo Award Model to the lowly Sonex-180 Deluxe.
Gibson 335-S Deluxe, Custom and Standard
In 1980, Gibson launched the solid-body 335-S series; combining the familiar ES335 shape with "the playability and sustain of other legendary Gibson solid bodies". None of them sold well, and the range was dropped quickly, but today they are sparking considerable interest, from players and collectors alike. Look out for the top-of-the-range Deluxe, with it's mahogany body and neck, and bound ebony fingerboard.
Kalamazoo KB bass
Gibsons original budget brand was Kalamazoo. In the 1960s they produced several guitars and one bass; shaped like an EB0, with a mighty EB humbucker, yet half the price. No wonder over 6000 KB basses were shipped from 1966 to 1969.
