Gibson Explorer
The '76 explorer was introduced by Gibson in 1990; a reissue of a reissue so to speak, as the explorer that was introduced in '76 was a reissue of the original explorer from '58. Simple, right? In reality these '76 models have much slimmer necks than the original reissues, more of a 60's profile than the chunky 50's explorers had. Lots of players prefer the necks on these as they are considerably more playable!
90's Gibsons have become highly sought after in recent years and for good reason, these are some of the best guitars to come out of Gibson USA.

Our Explorer is in excellent shape for a guitar pushing on 25 years of age; a prime example of a case queen. Hardly played.
The frets are in great shape and the guitar has received a full set up with Daddario 10's and is playing beautifully.
