Gibson Lzzy Hale Explorer - Ebony

Rocks as Hard as Its Namesake
Famous for her powerhouse vocals and aggressive guitar riffs, Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale is a force of nature. Her signature Gibson Explorer makes a similar impression. Its bound mahogany body is loaded with resonance, while a set of '57 Classic humbuckers pack a vintage-inspired punch that demands attention. Its comfortable SlimTaper neck is topped with a fast-playing Richlite fingerboard. And it's stunning to look at, thanks to a jet-black ebony finish accented by gold-plated hardware, pickup covers, and pickguard. Mother-of-pearl block fingerboard inlays complete this guitar's eye-catching appearance. The Lzzy Hale Explorer Dark is a hard-rocking guitar that's worthy of its namesake.

SlimTaper neck feels great and provides exceptional playability
The Lzzy Hale Explorer Dark sports a comfortable, fast-action neck with a SlimTaper profile. Early Gibson guitars had huge, often ungainly necks. By 1960, Gibson had gradually carved down this profile into what became their SlimTaper neck. As your fingers moved down this neck, the precisely controlled width-to-thickness ratio of the Lzzy Hale Explorer Dark's SlimTaper neck provides you with a consistent, fast, and comfortable feel. It's no wonder so many of the guitar aficionados here at Sweetwater consider the SlimTaper to be Gibson's finest neck.






Vintage-inspired humbuckers deliver a powerful punch
A '57 Classic neck pickup injects the Lzzy Hale Explorer Dark with the power, punch, and clarity of a legendary PAF humbucker. Its '57 Classic Plus bridge pickup delivers a similar tone but has been slightly overwound for a hotter output. These vintage-voiced humbuckers produce a warm, even tone with a musical response and "just right" feel that's sure to inspire your playing. Using Alnico II magnets, vintage enamel-coated wire, nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and 2-conductor braided wiring, Gibson gives these pickups the look, feel, and the sound of a vintage model, along with the added reliability provided by modern production techniques.




A buzzworthy fretboard, without the fret buzz
Ask three different people who've never touched a Richlite fretboard before and you'll get four opinions on the subject. Here's the skinny on the revolutionary composite fretboard material Gibson used on the Lzzy Hale Explorer Dark: it's awesome. Unlike wood, Richlite is unaffected by changes in temperature or humidity. No more winter pitting or spring-swell fret buzz! It's also hard enough to be used as cutting surfaces in the most demanding professional kitchens on earth. The result is a great feeling fretboard that adds killer sustain to your Lzzy Hale Explorer Dark.
