jmm555 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Gibson Goddess Not sure if this guitar had big sales when it was in production? Gibson’s collaboration with a lingerie company- (how did I let this one pass), I know it’s really a woman’s guitar, but purple/black with see-thru pickups, mmmm, and don’t for get the eBony fretbd with wrap around tail -piece I think like it, good pups too. Someone’s comment in here brought my attention back to it. Question: Is it a collectors item now? They seem few if any on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jantha Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Mmm... Goddess. I would buy a skyburst in a heartbeat if I could find one. Well, and if I had the money. Personally, I dig 'em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vette77 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 personally id love one of those. the skyburst blue is amazingly beautiful and the clear bobbins with the colored winding is awesome. of course they are virtually impossible to find these days...

jmm555 Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 I don’t know why Gibson discontinues an item, maybe solely based on sales. In the mean time – the Tiger Robots are here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gizeh68 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 that is one beautiful guitar. there's an SG on ebay now: http://cgi.ebay.com/Gibson-SG-GODDESS-/160432665684?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Guitar&hash=item255a883454 but its not nearly as nice as those. I'd love to have one, dont' care how girly it is. I'll just give it to my girlfriend (and then i'll give her the guitar). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSparkleLPC Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 My wife found her LP Goddess on ebay for $1100. It sounds just like my LPC. She loves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flight959 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Whats not to like?- nothing. The only thing I thought could be better on them is the control Knobs.... They need to be changed for sure... I love the Ebony boards on them... They never look tired or worn like the Rosewood... Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dleth Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 If anyone is interested, I just came across one at the following address. $1300 Canadian http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-musical-instruments-guitars-Gibson-Les-Paul-Goddess-W0QQAdIdZ203077150 Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmm555 Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Thanks dleth for that link, actually that one looks pretty nice. I’ll have to get one for the wife. (And I’ll permanently borrow it). >>>>>>>> Ok I agree, change the knobs, black ones might be good >>>>>>>>> Dear Gibson, Please make some more Goddess Guitars.

pippy Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I just had a flick through the 'Bacon' Les Paul book and, in addition to the rose-, violet-, sky-blue- and ice-burst versions there was also a Goddess available in black. Anyone seen one of these? I think it must look very tasty indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I particularly like the blues in the skyburst. I like the Midnight Manhatten, too, but I prefer the blue to "pop" a bit more. Are you thinking of picking up the violet burst Goddess?
