1999 Japanese "TRIBUTE" Series Catalog

Description:

Thanks much to enthusiast Tom Bollum for sending me a printed copy of this 1999 Japanese G&L "TRIBUTE" Series catalog. These instruments are made by a Japanese company but they use some G&L components (pickups and, for the basses, bridges as well). They are an attempt to offer a more affordable alternative to the made-in-America G&Ls (which are quite expensive in Japan).

Page 5 - a bunch of text I can't read which appears to be emphasizing the true G&L features that these instruments have - namely, the pickups and (for basses) the bridge. Also a photo of George Fullerton and an unknown bassist.
