  • where to buy from.....

    ok so ive been saving for a gibson explorer for about a year now, and its buying time. the only thing is, the only ones they have in local stores are black, and i want a white one, so im gonna have to order it online. where do you guys reccomend? sam ash, music123, musicians friend, etc? ive had good experiences before with music123, and ive heard some bad stories about musicians friend, and sam ash i imagine would be fine cause the stuff in their stores and their stuff online all comes from the same place. so which one do you guys reccomend?

    I've had extremely good experiences with www.zzounds.com. They were very fast, organized and professional. They offer free shipping on tons of items and if I were to buy some piece of gear new sometime, I would be inclined to go their again.

        You sure they currently make white explorers? I'm having trouble finding one.

          Call Steve at Wildwoodguitars.com He actually PLAYS (?????!!!!!) and understands that every instrument is different. He is Gibson Historics largest dealer and a great guy. If it's a special order, Gibby will send Steve his stuff long before the whores get theirs.

              I guess I was just looking at the wrong model. All that matters is that YOU found it.

                Dave's Guitar Shop is one of the largest independent guitar retailers in the Midwest! Shop our large selection of Fender, Gibson, Paul Reed Smith, Martin, Taylor, Rickenbacker and much, much more! We ship our new and used inventory worldwide.


                They have a white Explorer in stock for $849 I think (or $895). It plays nice and it sounds awsome. However (typical Gibson) the 21st fret is dead on the high E string, so I would insist that they fix this issue before shipping. This reason (and others) is why I would never buy a Gibson without seeing it first.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.
