The body consists of a maple top, mahogany back, mahogany neck, and ebony fingerboard. The 12th fret is adorned with the Gothic seriesf signature inlay, featuring a combination of a crescent moon and a star.

Furthermore, the back of the headstock features a portrait of Orville Gibson, the founder of Gibson?a design element unique to the Gothic series that is not found on standard Les Paul models.

It is equipped with 490R and 498T pickups. This combination delivers a thick, powerful sound while still allowing you to fully enjoy the classic Les Paul humbucker tone.
