Gibson 1981 Catalogue and Price List Japan

Original vintage Gibson & Epiphone Japanese-market catalogue with matching price list, distributed by Nippon Gibson (日本ギブソン) in Japan.

This is an original physical publication — not a reproduction, photocopy or later reprint.

An excellent reference piece for Gibson and Epiphone collectors, particularly anyone interested in the Japanese market and the history of Gibson distribution in Japan.

The catalogue is loaded with period photography, specifications and Japanese-market information covering a huge range of instruments and accessories, including:

• Les Paul Standard, Custom, Deluxe, Artist and limited-edition models
• Flying V and Flying V-II
• Explorer and Explorer II
• Firebird
• SG models
• RD Artist, Custom and Standard
• Victory guitars and basses
• Sonex models
• ES-335 / ES-345 / ES-347 and other thinlines
• B.B. King models
• Howard Roberts models
• Gibson acoustics including J-200, Dove, Hummingbird, Heritage, J-45 and others
• Gibson banjos and mandolins
• Epiphone Sheraton, Casino, Riviera, Emperor and acoustic models
• Gibson pickups, bridges, tuners, hardware and replacement parts
• Gibson strings and accessories

Both pieces show normal age and handling wear consistent with original vintage printed material. Please examine the photographs carefully for exact condition. Nothing has been restored or altered.

This came from my personal collection and was acquired as archival/reference material.

A very cool piece of Gibson history and a great companion for a vintage Gibson or Epiphone collection.
