Description
Blues Vintage Guitars, Inc. of Nashville presents … A 2009 Gibson USA Holy ExplorerOne of the most unique guitars
ever made by Gibson!The First of the 2009 Limited Run Series
And One of just 350 guitars made! Call (888) 407-2717 or (615) 613-1389 for more info Please scroll down to see all 40 HD photos! Blues Vintage Guitars Inc. is proud to offer this incredible and rare guitar 2009 Gibson Limited Run Series Holy Explorer.
This is the very first of the 2009 Limited Run Series guitars from Gibson USA, and is a prime example of Gibson’s imaginative spirit. This particular Limited Edition run was limited to just 350 guitars, and this is guitar #116, which is inked onto the back of the headstock, right under its serial number. Suffice to say, the guitar is rare. You don’t see them very often, and both players and collectors alike tend to hold onto them. This is one the best playing AND collectible guitars Gibson has made in the last 20 years! While the traditional features from the original Explorer design of the late 1950s are all still there — the modernistic mahogany body, traditional “drooping” headstock and hybrid neck profile – the carefully carved openings in the body give the Holy Explorer a new, more intense look and character. This new design serves more than just the guitar’s radical appearance, making it one of Gibson’s lightest production guitars to date.
The neck on the Holy Explorer retains the traditional characteristics of the original Explorer neck – 24¾-inch scale, 22 frets, rosewood fingerboard and figured acrylic dot inlays – and upholds its reputation as one of the world’s fastest guitar necks by delivering the same access to the guitar’s higher register of notes, which makes it the perfect rock and roll machine! The Holy Explorer also sports a single volume control perfectly positioned for swells, and two of Gibson’s hottest humbucker pickups — a 496R in the neck and a 500T in the bridge. Combined, these two ceramic humbuckers deliver one of the most powerful, crunching tones available on any Gibson, making the Holy Explorer suitable for a wide variety of musical styles.
Other Holy Explorer features include six in-line mini Grover tuners, which deliver smooth tuning action and accuracy, Gibson’s traditional stop bar tailpiece and Tune-o-matic bridge, and a customized Limited Run Series certificate of authenticity and Gibson USA hardshell case with a white silkscreened logo. This guitar is in NEAR MINT condition, and barely shows any signs of play. There are no issues with the guitar whatsoever, and everything is in great working order. You will NOT be disappointed in this guitar in any way. Trust us!
