Used And Vintage Electric Guitars

Explore the great tones of this wonderful Gibson Explorer in the beautiful Antique Natural finish.  Here's one that was originally sold here at Truetone to a collector that has been one of our favorite regular customers for years.  He only played it once or twice and kept it secured in the case in his home studio.  So, it's "like new", in perfect shape (usually not the case for an Explorer, due to the shape of the body).

The Explorer is a Gibson icon with its stylish offset body and dual humbucker design.
It has a 3-piece mahogany body with mahogany neck with the classic hockey stick headstock. The humbuckers are perfect for cranking up the gain! You get a super simple setup with individual volumes and a master tone.

Introduced in 1958 alongside the Gibson Flying V, the Explorer's design broke new ground and was the culmination of all guitar designs that preceded it. Its timeless beauty and sound have garnered it a devoted following among musicians of all genres. With an Antique Natural finish, mahogany neck and set-neck construction, rosewood fingerboard and slim taper neck, it has achieved legendary status. The Burstbucker 2 (neck) and Burstbucker 3 (bridge) pickups will give you the perfect blend of volume, tone and power.

This guitar is in excellent condition and comes with its original hardshell case.  It's been set up to play perfectly by the techs in our shop.  It's serious score!
