Gibson revived the model in 1975 and has produced it continuously since. This 2008 Faded Explorer features a solid mahogany body and neck, a rosewood fretboard with 22 frets, a Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, nickel stop tailpiece, and nickel mini Grover tuners. It includes a 3-way pickup selector, black speed knobs for neck and bridge volume, and a master tone control. The slim C-profile neck enhances playability. Unlike traditional Explorers, this model’s body is treated with wood pore filler and finished with a thin satin nitrocellulose lacquer, resulting in a lightweight, natural feel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eThe 2008 Gibson X-Plorer Studio, commonly referred to as the Explorer, is built with a mahogany body and neck paired with a rosewood fingerboard.  The C profile neck shape is quite comfortable to play.   The guitar sounds amazing too - it's equipped with two uncovered \"Dirty Fingers\" humbuckers, featuring dual volume controls and a single tone control. The guitar includes a tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece for stable tuning and sustain. Its scale length measures 24.75 inches, and the finish is super cool.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eIf you're looking for the hard to find, American made X-Plorer Studio, you've found the winner right here.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eColor: Faded Worn Brown\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eBody: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eNeck: Mahogany \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e22 Frets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003ePearloid dot inlays\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual uncovered \"Dirty Fingers\" humbuckers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eControls: Two volume, one tone with three-way pickup selector switch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eChrome Hardware\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial # \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e004580640\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47460068458739,"sku":"80GIB211","price":1999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/files\/1-Img27078.jpg?v=1752875426","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.mom\/products\/pre-owned-2008-gibson-x-plorer-studio-faded-worn-brown-with-ohsc","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
