ERGO EXPLORER

Neck Through Construction

The neck is made of 3-ply teak and extends through the body. This method of construction improves sustain and character of tone.

Reuse Recycle

Made of naturally seasoned teak reclaimed from old building timber. Packaging pine is used for the wings.

Symmetry

The headstock has symmetric tuner placement. This design makes for a compact headstock with the added benefit of even string tension.

Brass Repurposed

The side dots for fret markers are made of brass ball-ends from old strings. 

 Inspiration

The Gibson Explorer

The quintessential hard rock guitar.

The angular design coupled with a diagonal flow makes for a timeless design. Debuting in 1958 it still looks modern despite being half a century old.
