People who say an explorer doens't sound good when played clean don't know what they're on about. The explorer is actually a very versatile guitar. Of course it suits rock (and metal) very well but saying it's "not meant" to sound clean... I'm sorry but that's just wrong
This guitar's pickups aren't meant to sound clean at all, they were created to be the most powerful and heavier passive pickups (in fact Gibson 500, bridge of the Explorer, and also Seymour Duncan "Duncan Distortion" actually are the heaviest passive pickups ever)
your not to great for having that nice of a guitar, but im sure it will be a good inspiration for practice. mine is :) for everyone wondering about sitting with it: its not to comfortable at first but i got used to it very fast.
@CJ101nicKA do you hold it like a regular guitar or in some akward looking position, i played one before in a store and couldnt hold onto it, kept sliding
Na, the place I bought it from doesn't deal with Gibsons (Hell no's why), besides the guitar needs repairing, had problems with the floyd roses & whammy bar. I think Floyd Roses are just another thing to go wrong really, thats part of the reason why I wanna Explorer aswell as such an awesome sound. I gonna keep Keep things as simple as possible from now on, no more Whammys (which I never really use anyway)
umm well there like 100 bucks a piece but they have different setd with them in it like a zakk wylde set and a kerry king set which comes with a gain boster
dude no gibson guitar is for one thing. people give gibson shit bc they cost so much but you can honestly play anything on these guitars, i just got one and it is honestly so much better than other cheaper guitars you know? just the feel alone
dude why is everyone getting so serious. I was just kidding, and own a Gibson X-plorer. Of course they're amazing. A guitar is just as amazing as you make it. I'm not here to start one of those lame rivalry arguments with people I don't even know.
i know who james hetfield is hes Rithem guitarist and singer in metallica kirk Hammitt is lead guitar jasen newsted used to be base now the bass guitarist is Rob Trujillo and the drumer is lars Ulrich
play some heavy metal!!!!!
