GIBSON CS Explorer Custom w/ Ebony Fingerboard Gloss Ebony
Electric Guitar | Product code:
HN216238
Gibson Explorer electric guitars are the true epitome of rock design and sound. The Explorer Custom w/ Ebony Fingerboard Gloss Ebony is a top-of-the-line model from the Gibson Custom Shop.
The body, carved from a single piece of mahogany, features a dark ebony finish and gloss nitro lacquer. Glued to the mahogany neck is an ebony fingerboard fitted with twenty-two Medium-Jumbo frets. Orientation on the fingerboard surface is facilitated by mother of pearl position blocks.
The sound of the instrument is provided by two 490T/490R humbuckers known from Gibson models of the 1960s. Their character refers to vintage PAF pickups, only with less aggressive highs and more clarity in the midrange. Two volume potentiometers, a tone shutter and a three-position pickup switch are used to adjust the sound. Stable tuning is ensured by the string attachment in the Grover Kidney mechanism and through the TOM solid bridge in the stringers. The luxurious workmanship is accentuated by hardware in contrasting gold colour and a black pickguard matching the body.
The guitar comes in a case with a certificate of authenticity.
