Description

The Gibson Explorer '76 Reissue is a tribute to one of the most iconic guitar designs, blending classic aesthetics with modern playability. This guitar is a nod to the original 1976 release, which captured the imagination of rock legends and has remained a staple in the arsenal of many influential musicians. Crafted with a Z-shaped solid mahogany body, this reissue recaptures the original's bold look and delivers a powerhouse performance.

Equipped with dual ceramic 496R and 500T magnet humbuckers, the Explorer '76 Reissue provides a dynamic range of tones, from searing leads to warm, resonant chords. The slim neck profile ensures comfortable playability, making it as much a pleasure to handle as it is to hear. Whether you're laying down intricate solos or holding down the groove with chunky rhythm parts, the Explorer is versatile enough to handle it all.

The rosewood fingerboard complements the mahogany neck for a smooth, responsive feel under your fingers, while the tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece ensure reliable tuning and sustain. This model is not just about looks and sound; it’s a piece of musical history that invites creativity and excitement with every strum.

Key Features:

  • Mahogany body and neck with rosewood fingerboard
  • Dual ceramic 496R and 500T humbucking pickups
  • Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece
  • Slim neck profile for enhanced playability
  • Includes original hardshell case

When I first joined Shinedown, I had a definitive vision of what I wanted to have on-stage and what I wanted to present. That vision was to have all Gibsons, all in black. I have an ES-335, Les Paul Custom, a ’57 reissue, a ’67 reissue Flying V, an Elvis Presley Signature Dove, the black SG GT, an Explorer and a black Firebird. When you see all those guitars together in a rack, it just has such a presence.
