Overview

With a style loved by hard rock fans, this all mahogany guitar has tons of midrange punch.

The unmistakable Gibson Explorer Electric Guitar was acclaimed for being ahead of its time when Gibson first unveiled it in 1958. This all-mahogany Custom Shop Explorer Edition has all the thick midrange tones that are heard on countless rock classics. The Gibson Explorer has a radical, futuristic style that has appealed to generations of guitarists, particularly those who favor hard rock and heavy metal styles. Loaded with Classic '57 humbucker pickups with Alnico II magnets, the Mahogany Explorer is a guitar that gives you the tones that defined the music from the late '50s to the present. Other features include vintage Kluson tulip style tuners, dot inlays, nickel hardware, and a vintage-style ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece.
