2006 Gibson Explorer '76 Reissue
This '76 reissue Gibson Explorer is in fantastic condition and almost appears to never have been played. It was taken care of superbly for being 4 years old. It's classic white which appears somewhat cream-colored with a white pick guard. The bridge and tuners are chrome which looks very nice with the color of the body. I have a 1999 Gibson SG Standard Limited Edition that has a very dark tone and sounds super chunky which is great for heavy stoner and doom. Adding the Explorer to the collection is great from the aspect that the humbuckers are much different and feels more congruent with playing rock and metal. The body design is wild and although it may appear difficult to play because of its shape; it is very light and easy to position on your lap when sitting down. The speed of the neck is very nice. It's not super slim but is thin enough to blast out quick riffs for a less technical guitar player like myself. I would highly recommend this guitar to anyone looking to have fun playing rock, thrash, metal, or whatever you're into. For me, the only sticking point I have is that this could not be my only guitar. Its playability, look, and craftsmanship are awesome; but I prefer a bit of a heavier tone mainly that I get in my SG. Check out some of the vintage auctions for Explorers. Many are reasonably priced for a very fun and solid quality guitar.
