A Mod Collection 1958 Explorer Reissue in Plum Chameleon

This Mod Collection 2023 1958 Explorer™ Reissue has a Plum Chameleon finish. The modifications consist of the Mod Collection-exclusive custom finish, and open-coil Custombucker Alnico 3 neck and MHS bridge pickups. It weighs 8.8 pounds and comes with a hardshell case and two-year playability warranty.

All Gibson guitars go through rigorous QC, but every once in a while, a guitar with outstanding playability and tone doesn’t quite meet the strict cosmetic standards at our craftories. As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, these instruments are sent to the Mod Collection team to use as a blank canvas—and let their imaginations run riot. With a fresh batch of Gibson Mod Collection guitars dropping every week, act fast to get your hands on these one-of-a-kind guitars with unique hardware and electronics customizations, and the wildest finishes in Music City. 

Gibson Mod Collection products may have minor cosmetic defects which are listed in the Warranty Evaluation for each product. These defects are AS-IS and are not covered under the Gibson Mod Collection's Limited Warranty.
