As I'm sure some of you have probably heard, Gibson recently released the Raw Power Studio Les Paul (shown above,) a Les Paul Studio with a solid maple body (as opposed to the standard Mahogany) and a maple neck. This gives the Raw Power a brighter tone than your everyday Les Paul. Besides that, the guitar gives you all the power and punch that is the signature of a Les Paul, complete with a pair of '57 Classic pickups. The stripped down nature of the guitar keeps the price low. You don't pay for any extra frills, just the important stuff. Hence the name "Raw Power." If you've always wanted to try a Les Paul with a maple body and neck, I would definately try this out.
As for other new arrivals, we recieved a couple new Ovation acoustics, as well as a few Takamines. One cool Ovation piece is the Celebrity Trekker (shown above,) which takes the signature Ovation body and shrinks it down into a parlor sized guitar, perfect for travel or to keep around the house. For a smaller sized guitar it sounds great. The Takamines are mostly the G-Series models, which are a really nice option for anyone looking for a well built mid-level guitar. most are priced around the $500 range, and they definately give you a nice bang for your buck.
