Powerful & Pretty – Gibson Introduces Les Paul Goddess Cary Jan 26th

It’s About Time…

Gibson announced 15 new guitars at NAMM last week, including a groundbreaking and entirely new line of instruments aimed at fulfilling the needs of female guitar players – the Goddess line – and the Les Paul Goddess is one of these new guitars.

These aren’t just prettier versions of their standard counterparts, either. They’re built entirely with the female guitarist in mind, and include such modifications as lighter/smaller mahogany bodies, thinner profile necks (for smaller hands,) and of course an entirely new range of finishes – all while sporting the same high-quality craftsmanship you’d expect from a Gibson.

With a pair of Gibon’s powerful 490R/498T humbuckers on board, along with that slim tapered fast-action neck, the Les Paul Goddess manages to be both powerful & pretty…a truly deadly combination. In fact, we liked the Les Paul Goddess so much we named it number one in our Top 10 Guitars For Girls list for 2006!

The Gibson Les Paul Goddess Features–

• Carved Maple Top
• Light Weight Mahogany Back
