I made this one from a kit
all mahogany body maple (fat) neck with rosewood board-- currently has music lilly tuners and Epiphone 57 pups -- love the damn thing
got the kit for free---- old co worker bought it and never finished it-- said if I finished it and promised not to flip it --I could have it .........for the "haters" the headstock decal says GOBLIN in a gibson font.......

Awesome! The '76 natural finished Explorers look almost as good as the originals. I've always loved Guitarweasle's '76. Grrrreat looking and sounding guitars. The reissues of the '76 are always quite good. They should just make that as the "Explorer Standard" model.

Adrian, you missed the biggest chance to prank Norm. Delete the " BL" and change them to a D and you will have a "Godin" Explorer

Very nice!
