Condition: Excellent

Extremely rare opportunity — the Gibson Les Paul Goddess was produced for only a couple of years before being discontinued, and mint examples in this Purple/Violet Burst finish rarely surface on the market. This one has been well cared for and shows nominal playing wear.

Description:

Up for sale is a genuinely mint 2006 Gibson Les Paul Goddess in the coveted Purple/Violet Burst finish. This short-run model has developed a dedicated following among collectors specifically because Gibson pulled it from production so quickly — clean examples like this one are becoming harder to find every year.

No cracks, no repairs, no modifications. All original hardware and electronics. Neck is straight, truss rod functions perfectly, frets show no wear. This guitar has clearly been a collection piece rather than a gigging instrument.

Specs:

  • Body: Solid mahogany with carved maple top, Purple/Violet Burst finish
  • Neck: Mahogany, 60s slim taper profile, 24.75" scale
  • Fingerboard: Ebony, mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays, 22 frets
  • Pickups: Gibson 490R (neck) & 498T (bridge) humbuckers with clear bobbins
  • Bridge: Wrap-around, chrome hardware
  • Controls: Master volume, master tone, 3-way toggle
  • Weight: ~7.5–8 lbs

Includes: Original hardshell case (confirm if included — add here if so)

Why the price: Recent sales of mint purple Goddess examples have reached the $3,000 range, and pricing continues to climb as the model's short production run becomes better known among collectors. This example's condition and rarity justify a premium over typical listings.
