Not a ton of details on this one.

The attempt at "relic" binding is underwhelming.

Cover the pickups, change the tort to the more swirly kind and I’m in.
Even the gold hardware seems to work on this one. I think it looks good worn like it is. Brand new gold hardware would look gross.

Looks like someone took a saw to an explorer to lighten it up...

 

[Flamencology]

Fucks, but lazily, disappointingly, and infrequently.

 

[Pine Apple Slim]

Not for me but I've seen way worse.

Love the finish and appointments, dig the stupid Southern Rock/metal shape, but they go together like cheese and ice cream.

 

[mongooz]

it's ok. not a big fan of that relic job.
again, i'd rather have the amp that's behind it.

 

[Peen Simmons]

go together like cheese and ice cream.

Wasser likes him some wee gibson inspired guitars.

At first I thought this was some chibson parody send up.

 

[Honkridge]

When you cut off the rear bout of an Explorer that's not relicing...its GENOCIDE.

 

[Monson]

Given my new rural lifestyle, it would make some sense if I had a Southern Rocker I could strum on the veranda, only I have issues with this one.

Jeni's Ice Cream is fabulous.

This guitar? Big sack of nope.

I bet the guitar and that ice cream flavor have a very different, but similarly sized, demographic.

Looks like the reliced a bit too much off the guitar; the upper back piece is missing from this explorer

 

[GDSmithTX]

Love the finish and appointments, dig the stupid Southern Rock/metal shape, but they go together like cheese and ice cream.

You just made an implacable enemy of Zakk Wylde

 

[GomezAddams]

Going to guess this thing is pretty neck heavy.

 

[Denverdave]

Hard pass.

I'm coming to slightly appreciate relic jobs on electrics if they are done well. That was not done well.

 

[PunkKitty]

Meh.
