Gibson '80s Explorer Cherry - DSXE00CHCH1
Make the most of your new gear with the below
Retro Power and Modern Precision Collide
The Gibson 80s Explorer Cherry channels the spirit of an era when rock ruled the stage and tone meant attitude. Its angular mahogany body delivers rich sustain and full-bodied resonance, while the SlimTaper neck and rosewood fretboard provide fast, fluid playability. Equipped with dual 80s Tribute humbuckers, this Explorer produces the searing highs and thick lows that defined hard rock and metal through the decade. Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners, an aluminium Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a matching Stop Bar tailpiece ensure rock-solid tuning and lasting sustain. Finished in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer with black Speed knobs and chrome hardware, it looks as fierce as it sounds.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Gibson 80s Explorer Cherry perfectly balances vintage character with the punch and precision modern players demand.
