Product information
Gibson Explorer 2018 Antique Natural
Electric guitar with Gibson Burstbucker pickups, including case
The Gibson Explorer 2018 Antique Natural is a 6-string electric guitar featuring a mahogany body and neck, a torrefied granadillo fingerboard and an antique natural finish. This new Explorer for 2018 is designed to provide players with the same famous characteristics as the original 50s models with attractive style and a versatile tone for modern music. Built with a lightweight mahogany body that delivers a warm characteristic with high end shine for solos, this Explorer features a slim taper mahogany neck and smooth torrefied granadillo fingerboard for a highly comfortable performance, sparkling highs and a thick low-end response.
Burstbucker pickups offer a high output for producing an incredible power and sonic punch for rock'n'roll classic tones. The medium output of the neck Burstbucker 2 pickup combines well with the high output of the bridge’s Burstbucker 3 pickup. Equipped with asymmetrical coils that are designed to be true to the original PAFs, these pickups supply a more open response than standard humbuckers for a truly vintage sound. A Tune-O-Matic bridge and Mini Grover tuning machines offer solid string stability, whilst a Tektoid nut enhances harmonics in the highs and mids.
The main features of the Gibson Explorer 2018 Antique Natural include:
Straight out of the box perfect setup I normally play 9s but 10s are perfect for this guitar Real riff machine Also these burstbuckers with get you a lot of 70s 80s tones I changed the ceramic tone cap For a Russian paper in oil This thing loves to sing
Great guitar , feels really nice . Sounds awesome . The finish is so much better in real life compared to the photos - BUT the factory workmanship on the nut is POOR on mine . The outside edges are rough and not what you would think a Gibson should be. A minor issue , overall this guitar is fantastic and I'm glad I bought one .
