Gaskell Guitars asked:
The last time an original left handed Explorer guitar was readily available was over 25 years ago - in the mid 1980’s.
None of the three major guitar manufacturers who make this guitar today (Gibson/Epiphone, Hamer, Dean) make a left handed Explorer. Gibson no longer makes left handed Explorers even in their Custom Shop! So no amount of money today will get you a new “original.”
The Gaskell Classic is similar to but not the same as the Gibson/Hamer/Dean Explorers. Redesigned in Australia, it incorporates a slightly smaller, evenly weighted body with a correct centre of gravity, making it more comfortable, more playable, and timelessly stylish. Equipped with a set “60’s neck” (different from the original), the Gaskell Classic enables you to easily manage complex chording as well as being able to easily lead up and down the fret board. Unlike it’s inspiration, the Classic is controlled by one volume and two tone controls.
Like all Gaskell guitars, this guitar is always fully finished and set up Sydney, Australia or San Diego, USA. The Gaskell Classic is a professional quality instrument suitable for any style of music including Pop, Blues, Country, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Metal, etc.
If you ever dreamed of owning and playing a guitar like this, then now that dream is a reality!
