Gibson Explorer – 2008 – Ebony

Gibson 76 Explorer Reissue – 2008 – Ebony

Check out this excellent early 2000’s Gibson Explorer reissue in ebony nitro lacquer. All original with white 4-ply plastics aged to a light cream. Comes in original hard case without papers, and weighs 8lb and 9oz and is set up on 10s. Condition is very good, an excellent instrument, neck and frets are very clean. Usual sins of black lacquer, sink, checking, hazing, light impressions, minor dings and knocks on the edges. The corners of the horns are not damaged, which are usually the first parts of an explorer to take a knock. Top edge of the truss rod cover loop is broken. Looking good, aging gracefully. Plastics are mellowing to cream.

Condition

Various small marks, dings and flaws in the black lacquer. See the pictures, ask for more. Light buckle rash, light impressions, small flaws in the finish. As usual, there are more pictures than Reverb will host on my own site at deegearlocker dotcom.
