2012 Gibson Explorer ‘76 Vintage Reissue Ebony w/ Case

Description: Up for sale, a 2012 Gibson Explorer ‘76 vintage reissue in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case and owner’s manual. This modern, discontinued iteration of the ‘76-style Explorer platform features all mahogany construction, 490R/498T humbuckers, and a gloss Ebony nitro lacquer finish. Via the 490R and 498T humbucker pair, the guitar has plenty of power on tap, and these alnico magnet pickups cover a wide tonal range. The 490R is Gibson's Modern Classic humbucker, featuring Alnico II magnets and similar in its response to a PAF, yet with more midrange emphasis. The 498T Hot Alnico bridge position pickup has Alnico V magnets, with plenty of muscle and growl, well-suited for high gain scenarios.
