This single sided insert gives specifications for the Epiphone FT-145 jumbo flattop acoustic guitar, produced for Epiphone by Aria, at the Japanese Matsumoku plant.
Model FT-145 had a list price (June 1972) of $104.50.
A traditional jumbo size and shape guitar, the FT-145 is a favorite among Country-Western and Blue Grass artists. Features a slim, fast, low-action neck and quality spruce top.
The 'Pick Epiphone' folder, although dated 1971, was filled with inserts printed as early as late 1970, and as late as 1972. This insert comes from the second series printed in 1971, and uses the new Epiphone model designations, and new guitar image. This sheet replaces the 1970 version for the #6730. Note the addition of the Epiphone 'E' logo on the scratchplate and truss rod cover.
This guitar is now offered with a choice of two cases: Durabilt case #810 at $15, or the new Hard Shell case, H-20 at $40 (June 1972 prices).
