The insert for the Melody maker Double shows an image on one side, with specifications on the reverse. All text and image are copied (save the lack of colour) from page 10 of the 1978 Gibson Quality / Prestige / Innovation catalog.
According to the defining characteristics of a Gibson Special (see the inside cover), this guitar very much fits the close out category, last being listed in a US Gibson price list in June 1979 at $569.
