Gibson USA Explorer 2019 Antique Natural

Note: Due to differences in wood grain, the item you receive may not exactly match the item in the photos.

The aptly named Explorer is as modern today as it ever was. The Gibson USA Explorer 2019 Antique Natural preserves the progressive yet understated style of original with the unmistakable, Explorer-cut solid mahogany body and an Antique Natural finish reminiscent of the original Korina, a solid mahogany set neck with Slim Taper profile, one-piece rosewood fingerboard, classic hardware set with chrome finish, and Burst Bucker 2 and Burst Bucker 3 humbucking pickups for more burst than your average ‘bucker.


About Gibson USA:
Luthier Orville Gibson founded the Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co. Ltd. in Kalamazoo, MI in 1902. Its original aim was to make mandolins and mandolin-family instruments. Over the last 100-plus years, Gibson Brands, Inc., as it is now known, has since evolved into the world’s premier manufacturer of semi-hollow and hollow body electric guitars, as well as a celebrated portfolio of innovative solid-body and acoustic models.

Nashville: the home of country music, and the home of Gibson USA. Producing all Gibson solid-bodies, Gibson’s Nashville facility is the place where great love affairs, and guitars like the Les Paul and the SG, are born.
