Information is remarkably scarce, however correspondence obtained directly from Gibson Consumer Service confirms that these guitars were produced exclusively in 1991 in Nashville, Tennessee, with approximately 200-250 examples believed to have been made. The model featured a complete Bullion Gold finish covering the front, back and neck, together with the unique Hall Of Fame decal applied beneath the clear coat on the rear of the headstock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo little information exists regarding these instruments that the owner even contacted Guitarist magazine in an attempt to uncover more details.
