Condition: very good 

Description: 

Here for your consideration is a 1989 Gibson Explorer in very good, all original condition! This has to be one of the nicest playing guitars we have in the shop right now. It feels amazing! Body shows some light surface marks and some very minor dings but is otherwise really clean for its age. Neck is in excellent shape with no notable blemishes. Headstock shows some light surface marks and light wear along the edges but is otherwise clean. Fretboard is in excellent shape and frets show very minimal wear with no issues and tons of life left. Hardware is in great shape and all working perfectly. Electronics work perfectly and features an original set of Bill Lawrence Humbuckers that sound absolutely amazing! A beautiful, all original Explorer from the "good wood" era. Plays like a dream and is very clean for its age. Has been fully inspected and set up by our tech and ready for a new home. Includes non-original case, missing handle. Case is rough and marked /spray-painted logo, but solid and will protect the guitar. See below for specs.
