Description
Unleash your inner rockstar with the Orville by Gibson Explorer, a legendary instrument that combines the iconic Gibson heritage with the precision craftsmanship of Japanese manufacturing. Originally made in 1990, this solid body electric guitar is crafted from korina wood for a resonant and balanced tone that guitar enthusiasts crave. Known for its distinctive shape and powerful sound, this Explorer is more than just a guitar; it's a statement piece.
Though it has been lovingly modified over the years, these changes only enhance its character and playability. Featuring Seymour Duncan JB pickups, this guitar delivers a dynamic range of tones from warm and mellow to bright and aggressive, perfect for any genre of music. The neck profile is big yet comfortable, allowing for smooth transitions and effortless playability whether you’re shredding solos or strumming chords.
Despite some minor cosmetic repairs over the years, including a professionally fixed headstock crack and a reinforced control cavity, the Explorer remains structurally sound and performance-ready. Additional upgrades include a non-original pickguard and tailpiece, as well as Dunlop straplocks for added security during performances. Encased in the original brown tolex hardshell case, this guitar is ready to travel from rehearsal to stage with ease.
Key Features:
- Solid korina wood body
- Seymour Duncan JB pickups
- Unique Explorer shape and design
- Big yet comfortable neck profile
- Upgraded pickguard and tailpiece
