Gibson / Explorer III / 1985 / Black / Guitar
|
From a large collection out of Chicago, we are pleased to offer this gorgeous 1985 Gibson Explorer III, serial# 80315543, in black. One of my Fave Guitars...!!! Its one and only owner played and loved it, but took incredible care of all of their pieces. Only in production for one year, the Explorer III differed from other Explorers in a few ways. For one, it used an Alder body instead of Mahogany. Additionally, the Explorer III wielded three P-90 pickups instead of humbuckers and lacked a pickgaurd. Maple neck with Rosewood fretboard. The body has been refinished, but the neck/headstock are original. The tone pot has been changed (same style/CTS pot replacement). The guitar weighs 8lbs 2oz, with a nut width of 1 5/8" and 10" fretboard radius.
