Seems like a rare one, if this is in the wrong place please feel free to move it.  I just thought there might be a Gibson fan here that would be interested.

Thanks, Brad. I don't think anyone will be interested at that price. They can be bought for about half that.

They're fairly rare only because they sold so poorly.

Price is steep for this one, especially as the Ferrari red is the most prevalent color of the Shadow Explorers as these were called due to their Shadow Piezo system. They sound well though, much more lively than the reg Explorers of the era with the Grabber pups, and thanks to the maho body not sterile.
