 Gibson Explorer Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:A genuine Explorer, through and throughTwo smoking-hot ceramic humbuckers for hot tonesPlek'd for precision playabilityA genuine Explorer, through and throughGibson built the Explorer with a solid mahogany body and a very comfortable set mahogany neck (topped with rosewood), so you know you're in for rich tones, great sustain, and outstanding midrange character. The Explorer has been embraced by hard rockers the world over for decades; its set-neck construction and fast-playing neck combine to give you an unbeatable sonic weapon onstage or in the studio. From the tonewoods to the rock-solid set-neck to the top-shelf hardware, this axe was made to rock.Two smoking-hot ceramic humbuckers for hot tonesHistorically, Gibson has long been associated with the dark, punchy tone of the humbucking pickup with its fat low end and crunchy, complex midrange. The Explorer carries on that tradition with two scorching-hot humbuckers with ceramic magnets (a 496R in the neck position and a 496T in the bridge position). The Explorer comes standard with coverless pickups, but some Sweetwater guitarists even prefer them removed for a louder output and more top end. Plek'd for precision playabilityThis Gibson Explorer 2017 T feels fast and precise, thanks in large part to Plek processing. Typically reserved for top-dollar custom guitars, this process levels the frets with pinpoint precision, providing you with the most playable fretboard you're likely to own. Each note rings loud and clear, and the fret edges feel smooth as silk.Gibson Explorer Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:Comfortable, lightweight mahogany body lets you rock all nightSlim, lightweight, and smoothly contoured mahogany body won't tax your backRosewood fingerboard with dot inlays looks cool and is easy on your fingersSlimTaper mahogany neck feels great and provides ultra-fast actionGibson 496T and 496R humbuckers give you access to a universe of toneNitrocellulose lacquer finish enhances this guitar's looks, feel, and toneGibson USA's Limited Lifetime Warranty and 24/7/365 Customer Service
