  • Not the quickest review, but worth the extra few minutes. This is a very special review for a special guitar - a real life Gibson Explorer. It's pretty awesome, with one caveat; it's all in the video. Honestly Gibson, for $2k I do expect perfection, and this is SOOOOO close. But no banana! I really like those Alnico II pickups, and the action on this thing is super low. It's a fun video and I actually play some guitar in it (gasp!!!).

    Your son is a great kid, shows what kind of father you are that he thought to spend his hard earned money to show his appreciation for his pops! It's a badass guitar as well!

      Yeah, he really (REALLY) shocked me with this one. He was a teenager when I had to sell my original and he remembered how much that sucked. Just awesome.

    I used to play your old Explorer - the pickups were so hot I bought some and installed them in an old Kramer (which is completely worn out now). They drove the tube amp to its sweet spot. Highly recommend. Keep up the good work Sparky.

    I think we should start a webcast called Guitar Stories. Everybody’s got one and yours was amazing!

    Dude the Fretboard is Awesome! Like a flame ! Try putting some oil on it ! That doesn’t effect anything

      Thanks! I'll give that a shot. It was just a bit unexpected - to say the least!

      Cool - I need to look that stuff up, particularly for my guitars with pau ferro or laurel fretboards. Thanks!
