Overview

It broke the mold in 1958 and still is fresh today.

The 2019 edition Gibson Explorer embodies the trail-blazing characteristics of the Explorers originally introduced in 1958, which made those rare and desirable guitars so far ahead of their time. This model features a solid mahogany body and set-in mahogany neck with fast, comfortable Slim Taper profiles and rosewood fingerboard. Sonically, BurstBucker humbucking pickups and the classic Gibson hardware combine for superb tone and sustain that can range from classic boogie to full-blown shredding delight.

Features

  • Nitro-finished mahogany body
  • 24.75"-scale walnut neck with 22-fret, 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard
  • Dual BurstBucker pickups, 3-way pickup selector
  • Nashville-style Tune-o-matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece, Grover Mini tuners
