Gibson X-Plorer - Explorer Pro Guitar Review

Estimated price : $1,170

Taking tone and attitude to new extremes, the Gibson Explorer Pro guitar is perfectly attuned to the technical demands and punishing intensity of today’s hard rock and heavy metal. Based on Gibson’s legendary Explorer, the Explorer Pro is updated with smaller, lightweight mahogany body and crushingly powerful 496R and 500T humbuckers. The Gibson Explorer Pro sports a classic lacquer finish in Ebony or Natural, and also in a Natural Satin finish with a stunning AA flame-maple top with antique binding. With flashy looks and killer sound, the Gibson Explorer Pro is destined to rewrite the rules of rock ’n’ roll.
