The seller in this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... L:RTQ:US:1 claims to be selling SG basses in canary yellow, sky blue and coral pink that were produced specifically for the Japanese market. Here are some pics he emailed me:

Gibson did make a limited run of pastel SG reissues last year for the Japanese market and possibly for Europe. I remember that Redbird read about it in a UK guitar and bass magazine and found this company selling them. Looks like they still have Coral Pink in stock.

Yeah, they were supposedly Japanese only, but I saw all three colours (at least pink and yellow) in Denmark Street last month (London).
The finish is a sort of matte, rough textured finish - I guess a bit like the SG faded guitars, rather than the hi-gloss finish of the cherry ones |
