Gibson 1976 bass catalog, page 9. Right hand page of a double page spread on the Les Paul Triumph (shown here in stunning white finish) and Les Paul Signature basses.
In the 1975 bass catalog, these guitars had been delegated to the back cover, on a plain back background. Here, the same images and text are used, however over the close up image of the Les Paul Signature bass of the previous page.
1976 prices for the Les Paul Triumph and Les Paul Signature bass were as follows:
model | finish | March 1st 1976 | June 1st 1976 |
---|---|---|---|
Les Paul Triumph | Natural Walnut | $679 | $679 |
White | $709 | $709 | |
Les Paul Signature | Gold top / Walnut back | $499 | $499 |
Tobacco Brown Sunburst | $529 | - |
As can be seen, the second price list of 1976 no longer includes the Les Paul Signature bass in Tobacco Sunburst finish.
