The Most Brutal Explorer Ever!

The Gibson Dethklok "Thunderhorse" Explorer honors the world's most brutal animated metal band. Inspired by the Explorer-wielding Skwisgaar Skwigelf, the Dethklok "Thunderhorse" Explorer sheds the black finish for a more metaltastic Silverburst, while cream binding on the body and neck lend an air of elegance to this beast. Just like the show, the Dethklok "Thunderhorse" Explorer isn't for the faint of heart, as a Burstbucker 1 at the neck and Burstbucker 2 at the bridge conjure searing metal tones when you want them, but clean up real nice when you back off a bit. Whether you're a burgeoning metal fanatic or a guitarist just looking for a stunning axe that can do anything, the Dethklok "Thunderhorse" Explorer is that guitar. Bring out your brutal and get a Dethklok "Thunderhorse" Explorer today!
