Anyone play one as their main guitar? I've found a really nice one but if i get it, it will be my main axe, not sure about that...

 

I know that when i watch the edge play his, it is one of the best sounds ever

I use an Agile Ghost III as one of my main guitars, and it's a take on the Explorer ;)

A good friend of mine picked up a '72 reissue Gibson Explorer a few months back, not long after I got my Ghost III. The finish on his is much thinner (well, nitro compared to the thick poly on mine), but playability and tone, they're very close. Mine is a bit darker with the same pickups, though the set I've got in there now brighten things up significantly. His has the hotter ceramic Gibson pickups, sounds great.

So "kind of," and I wouldn't mind adding the real deal to my collection either :D
