Explorer

[Metaddict]

Hi guys,

Does anybody have an Ken Lawrence Explorer?
If so than how much was it and how long was the delivery time?

Go over to the main rig talk forum and post this question. There was talk a few months ago on there about this very subject but I can't remember who.

There are probably better copies out there, but this one is not too bad either. Has a thicker Les Paul type neck but plays really well. 100% Mahagony, EMG 81/60, and unlike the KL explorer, this copy was built with 24 frets. I felt like I got a pretty good deal on it, plus it came with a mint Coffin case.

 

[dean_fry]

wow not bad! I always wanted a white KL what did it cost?

 

[RJF]

$400

I got a older 2002 Hetfield spec Chechen one. I am thinking about selling it but I want to contact Ken to see if he can put a new fretboard and inlay on it.

Yes the reissues are garbage.
