The Super 400 CES with 18: body,solid maple side and back and solid spruce top. This was the top of the line Archtop, The L-5 CES with 17: body Alnico pickups and Tun- O- matic bridge.The L-5S soon to be called the Switchmaster in 55.It has a 17: body,laminated woods and 3 pickups,bound F holes 4 knobs. The ES-350 Gold hardware changed to ES-350T in 1956. The ES-175 and ES-175 D the work horse for Guitar players. Durable with laminated woods sharp cutaway,no frills just ask Steve Howe.The ES-150 and ES-125,single pickups for players that could not afford the higher end models. The ES-295 is the only Gold Top Archtop with a Les Paul Trapeze Tail piece. The Famous J 160E Flat top played by the Beatles and still in production today. Last was the ES-140 with it's short scale and size . Gibson was never big when it came to amps but when I do find them they are usually in great shape. Not always big enough to play out with other Band members with Fender amps . The exception's would be the GA-90 with 6 eight inch Jensen speakers The GA-30 which would overdrive with the low wattage.The Les Paul Amp was only 15 watts. Most are used for the Clean sound. The catalogue is in Good condition,it has writing on it and a stamp Reitz Music Center in Portsmouth Ohio. One page is separated and a few have small pieces missing but the photos show everything. Contact me if you have any questions
