For sale is a rare and captivating 1990 Gibson Explorer in Alpine White, complete with its original hard-shell case. This early '90s Explorer showcases classic Gibson style and power, made even more desirable by its rich, naturally aged patina and all-original components.

Condition:

This guitar has been played and shows honest wear from years of use. There are scratches, dings, wear on the back, and finish checking throughout. There’s also some clear coat chipping on the front of the headstock near the tuners and one broken pickguard screw. The original case is fully functional but has a replaced handle.

Despite these cosmetic marks, the guitar is in very good overall condition and performs flawlessly. The original frets show some wear but still play cleanly with no buzzing or dead spots. The neck is straight and the action is smooth. It has been recently set up and is ready to play.

Specs:

• Serial Number: 92500807
• Finish: Alpine White
• Nut Width: 1.68"
• 1st Fret Depth: 0.79"
• 12th Fret Depth: 0.85"

• Pickups: Gibson 500T (Bridge) / 496R (Neck)
• Weight: 10 lbs 6 oz

Why This Guitar Stands Out:

• Vintage Gibson Explorer with all-original components
• Rare Alpine White finish aged to perfection
• Ebony fingerboard for smooth feel and tonal clarity
• Powerful 500T/496R pickups—ideal for hard rock, metal, and beyond
• Recently set up—ready for the stage or studio
