Guitar makers have advertised in music magazines such as Down Beat, Guitar Player and very many more. Some manufacturers advertised widely (Guild, Gibson, Fender) but many more didn't and adverts are few and far between. Here are some of my favourite ads out of the ones i've seen.

Ibanez Roadstar II bass RB650 vintage MIJ 1984 - red

Lynn, Massachusetts, 019**, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

$680

Great bass. Lightweight and easy to play. Straight neck, low action, frets look good with minor wear, truss turns, electronics are clean. Strung with D'Addario Chromes. There's the expected wear for a 40-year-old instrument; some dings and dents (a couple of which were touched up), there's a crack in the paint on the back, light wear in the fretboard, patina on metal bits, etc. When I bought the bass there was some airbrushed art on the pickguard that wasn't budging with acetone or Goo Gone.

1980 Ibanez Blazer Series Electric Guitar - HSS - MIJ - OHSC

Funkstown, Maryland, 217**, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

$599

I have a buddy at a local pawn shop who knows I like 80's Japanese guitars
The serial number is not that helpful in dating, instead, there is a good Blazer series wiki that pictures all models by year, the headstock logo points to a BL300 model - built in 1980
NOTE: BL300 should be three single coils (like a strat), but at some point this guitar was modified to include a humbucker. (The hole is not very well cut and the screws are crappy )
