That Gibson Explorer is cool. I once had the serial number 068 Hammer Destroyer. Curly Maple. It was a beautiful solid guitar. My dad made me sell it for college tuition and fees in the early 80's...and my 68 Coronet R/T. TOUGH LOVE! LOL I walked a lot of beans, delivered thousands of newspapers and detasseled a lot of corn to buy those 2 things!
My 1st guitar is My Gibson ES135 still my favorite, everyone told me start with an acoustic, so I figured that's close enough :) and got my pair of Fender stacks shortly after.
