For your consideration is this 1978 Gibson Explorer Reissue weighing in at 8.7lbs. Overall it's in great shape but does exhibit some play wear of a 46 year old guitar As pictured... I would put excellent condition but because there's just normal wear... All original with untouched pickups and solder. The bridge screams and growls as you would expect. The neck pickup has a beautiful rich thick tone that sounds like it should be an old Les Paul or 335, very cool. There is small ding on the back of the headstock, see pic. Sounds and plays Great with very little fret wear. Wear/fade as pictured on the pick ups which look great. Includes the original Gibson hard case but is missing 2 latches. Great deal and very hard to find this year ebony explorer. Only at the moment listed anywhere...
