About this listing
If Darth Vader started an arena rock band in 1981 and demanded a guitar that looked classy enough for a black-tie event but dangerous enough to summon a noise complaint from three counties away… this would be it.This Gibson Custom Shop Dealer Select Explorer Custom in Heavy Antique Alpine White VOS doesn’t merely enter a room—it arrives like a mafia boss carrying a Marshall stack. It somehow manages to look elegant, violent, expensive, and deeply irresponsible all at the same time.The Antique Alpine White VOS finish is absolute perfection. Under lights it glows with that slightly aged creamy hue Gibson nailed so well—like somebody parked a brand-new Explorer inside a climate-controlled casino since the Reagan administration and only recently cracked the case open to unleash it upon civilization.And then there’s the gold hardware.Good grief.This thing has more gold on it than a retired Elvis impersonator in Vegas. The black-and-gold contrast against the Alpine White finish is so ridiculously cool it almost feels unfair to other guitars hanging nearby. You don’t “own” this guitar. You become legally obligated to start standing wider while playing it.The 57 Classic and 57 Classic Plus combo absolutely kills in this platform. Huge punchy mids, snarling upper harmonics, fat sustain, and enough authority to make every power chord sound like it just evicted somebody from an apartment complex.Meanwhile, that chunky neck carve feels like Gibson grabbed a Louisville Slugger, sent it to finishing school, and taught it how to play Thin Lizzy riffs.This is not a guitar for subtle people.This is a guitar for people who think:“Maybe the intro needs more gain.”“Maybe the solo should last longer.”“Maybe I should buy another half stack.”And honestly? They’re probably right.SpecsModel: Gibson Custom Shop Dealer Select Explorer CustomFinish: Heavy Antique Alpine White VOSBody: Mahogany, Weight-Relieved Explorer Custom ConstructionNeck: MapleNeck Profile: 1950s Chunky D, .947" 1st Fret, 1.002" 12th FretScale Length: 24.75"Fingerboard: Ebony with BindingFingerboard Radius: 12"Inlays: Celluloid Block InlaysNut: NylonBinding: White T-BindingHeadstock Veneer: CS Fiber w/ MOP Split Diamond InlayTruss Rod Cover: Explorer CustomBridge: ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic, Short Stopbar Tail-pieceTuners: Grover Strip Tuners (305GM Bass 6-On-A-Side)Hardware: Gold VOS AgedPickguard: 5-Ply Explorer Custom Pickguard w/ 30° BevelControl Plate: BlackPickups: 57 Classic Humbucker (neck), 57 Classic Plus Humbucker (bridge) with Black BobbinsControls: 2 Volume, 1 Tone, 3-Way ToggleCapacitor: .022uf (CPA Spec)Knobs: Black Speed Knobs w/ Gold/Silver InsertsWeight: 8.6 LBSSerial #: CS503xxxConditionShe was born on November 19th, 2025 and is in Mint unplayed condition with no excuses, no wear, and no mysterious “light studio use” fairy tales from a guy named Bryce who definitely stored it next to a lava lamp and three Monster Energy cans.The VOS finish is clean, the gold hardware still looks fantastic, and the guitar presents exactly how you hope one of these high-end Dealer Select Customs will.Includes the original Gibson Custom Shop hardshell case, certificate, and all the candy.Whoever brings this baby home will be completely STOKED!!LET’S GOOOO!! 🎸🔥WHILE YOU ARE HERE, GO AHEAD AND LOOK AT MY OTHER LISTINGS!!Me- I have a 100% positive feedback rating, and intend to keep it that way!
