"PoS"
I bought one of these because I already had a 2016 Explorer that I love!! This was nowhere near the quality of that guitar and was more expensive as well.Don't get me wrong i love me some Gibsons and i have more than a few but the quality of this is far below what i have come to expect from this iconic brand.To be honest, i received this guitar and it looked bad and played worse so i returned it. zZounds.com was so professional and so easy to deal with!!I ended up buying a Schecter SLS Explorer style and it was superior in every way for less $$.I'm sorry Gibson I love you but I'm leaving you.
