@MCRingmaster I dislike them because they just don't cut it for me. That's my opinion. I don't like Jackson or Ibanez either. I like Schecter and PRS.
@meah941 That's such horseshit. Gibson and Fender are two of the best brands out there. Nearly every single accomplished guitarist in the last 50 years has used one or the other.
sounds pretty good imo, but the looks are not my style, Then again, instruments are more about sound then looks. At two thousand dollars though, i wouldn't buy it. Decent guitar though.
are they dumb fucks at gibson or what !!! bring out a gibson explorer white and black versions no scratch plate emg 81 bridge 60 neck , neck through construction mahogany body and neck ebony fret board 1 volume 1 tone control 3 way toggle switch ! i mean for fuck sake get with the program it would sell like hot cakes.
has nobody considered this at gibson for fuck sake. its what everybody is waiting for since they banned esp from making them.
Irgendwie wirkt er bei den Reviews deutlich freundlicher. Finde ich. Bei den neuen kommt er irgendwie ein wenig angepisst rüber.^^ Was nicht heißen soll das die schlecht sind.
geiles teil aber wenn mann sagt ich hab keine lust den amp anzuschlißen hat man ein problem: durch die löcher hat die keinen richtigen klangkörper für manche ein problem
everything about this guitar looks cheap. and yet they upped the price haha even gibson junkies hate this guitar. and the 7 string explorer. i mean $3000 for a B string and some EMG's? thats retarded. and its still a 24.5" scale, which is horrible for 7 strings
@bezakChaos: It is, I love the Explorers, V's, and Warrior/Xiphos shapes though. But you never know - maybe soon all guitars will be made of plastic and only have 5 buttons on it, oh wait a minute... =P
I thought my old BC Rich Warbeast was ugly as hell but now that I've sold it I suddenly want it back because it was a cool shape. (Good looking, but a BAD sounding and POORLY made guitar) =]
wenn man ganz genau hin sieht und n bisschen fantasie wirken lässt, sieht der explorer aufrecht aus, wie ein Totenkopf in schräglage.... achja: Geiles Gerät !!!
bin ein großer explorer fan, wirklich, ich liebe sie und spiel sie täglich meine beiden schätze, aber was zu weit geht geht zu weit, das is einfach nicht mehr schön. sorry gipson, hat mich nicht überzeugt!
gibson is making some crappy stuff now. that guitar is hideous and sounds none to great. and self tuning guitars... can people not learn to do it themselves?
True, and I would agree, but to be fair, it starts out as one big block, they cut it into an explorer shape, throw away the excess, and then cut out the parts in the body and throw that away, so ultimately, Gibson still has to buy the same amount of wood for the same price, and the excess is not used again. But come on, it does look pretty wicked! :P
@Burnboy85 then they moved on to the rest of their guitars where they went, how much would this sell for? 700 or 800? now we slap gibson on it and presto! 2,800!
gibson boss: less charge more oney for less wood :O!
gibson people: good idea! :O
customer: fuck off -,-'
