(hennemusic) Before fans can get a hold of the new Chickenfoot album (due later this year), they can get their hands on something just as powerful: Gibson USA introduces the Limited Edition Sammy Hagar Explorer.Crafted in the image of the original Explorer of 1958 a guitar that was blindingly ahead of its time back in the day and graced with an original blend of Sammy's Red Rocker and Chickenfoot styling, the Sammy Hagar Explorer is an eye-catching axe from every angle, and equipped for everything from searing to sublime tonal adventures, too.
Like every great electric guitar from Gibson USA, the Sammy Hagar Explorer begins with a foundation of supreme tonewoods. The body is crafted from solid mahogany and dressed with a cream bindingan elegant touch for an Explorer. It is dressed in Gibson's unique "Red Rocker" finish in hand-sprayed high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, and adorned with a secret "ghost image" of the Chickenfoot logo randomly placed on the back, an emblem that can only be seen when viewed from a particular angle in the right light. more on this story
