All a bit worrying really for a guitar at this price level. For my first Gibson (having played guitar for 18 years and always wanting to own one) I'd have expected a bit more attention to detail! Hadn't even realised the bridge was off either until giving it a closer inspection.

Hi all, I've just received a new Explorer Antique Natural Left Handed today. I've been wanting this guitar for years and absolutely love it straight out of the box. I've noticed that the bridge pickup had a pretty obvious slant. It's lower toward the neck than it is toward the bridge. See attached photo. It seems deliberate as it's fairly solidly in that position. I've not seen this before so not sure about this really. Have never owned a Gibson before just Ibanez and PRS. Nothing obviously wrong tonally, and not fouling the strings at all, but would appreciate any thoughts?

Hi all, Does anyone know the situation with the left hand explorers? I keep coming across the LH Explorer in Antique Natural, but is either not in stock or on order for anywhere between 1 month to 7 months. Some retailers are telling me it is discontinued, others saying that Gibson might be honouring existing orders - Gibson themselves said it is no longer in production. Does anyone have any ideas? I'd love to get hold of one.
