Gibson's 2009 Limited Run Series! Gibson's 2009 Limited Run Series gets rolling with the Holy Explorer. Everything that made the Explorer such a legend is still here — the classic body shape, hot humbucking pickups, and a comfortable neck profile — but what's missing are strategic hunks of the body's wood, giving the Holy Explorer a unique look. A pair of ceramic humbuckers — a 496R in the neck and a 500T in the bridge — combine to give this beast monstrous tone! With only 350 of these being made, the Holy Explorer is an instant collector's item! Gibson Holy Explorer at a Glance: Unique spin on a classic Hot humbuckers No-frill controls Headstock and hardware Taking its cue from last year's highly successful guitar of the month, the Holy V, Gibson is offering of limited-run follow-up, the Holy Explorer. This re-imagining of a classic offers all the meaty tone and speedy playability of the original model. Yet, while following the exact body lines of its iconic predecessor from the Modernistic Series of 1958, the solid mahogany body is shot full of holes, creating both a lighter guitar and an interesting modification of the original Explorer's resonant characteristics. Hot humbuckers The Explorer has always been a rocker, but the Holy Explorer winds the X factor up a notch to crank out a contemporary descendant of the heavy rock sound. A pair of Gibson's own uncovered ceramic-magnet humbucking pickups — a 496R in the neck and a 500T in the bridge — maximize output and sustain while retaining clarity and string definition. No-frill controls The minimalist control array is designed to let you get right down to business. There's just a single volume control, positioned for easy pinky-finger volume swells, and a three-way pickup selector — nothing superfluous to get in the way of you and your tone. And playability, naturally, is flawless, on par with the Explorer's famous high neck/body joint and easy access right up to the 22nd fret of the Holy Explorer's fast, super comfortable 24 3/4 inch scale neck, which is also made from solid mahogany. Headstock and hardware The Holy Explorer retains its ancestor's distinctive "drooping" headstock with six-in-line tuners, which in this case are Grover Mini tuners. The guitar is also fitted with a 1 11/16"-wide Corian nut and stop bar tailpiece and Tune-o-matic bridge, which keeps everything firmly anchored and ready to wail. From chunky rhythm work to screaming lead tones, the Holy Explorer is primed for rockin'. It's only available in limited run of 350, so they won't last long. Each guitar comes with a customized Limited Run Series certificate of authenticity, and a black Gibson hardshell case with plush white interior and silkscreened Gibson USA logo.
