The Story

This frightening axe is Gibson Custom Shop Explorer Custom made for the Music Zoo as a Made 2 Measure piece with a "Purple Widow" finish and the added flash of a flame maple top.

It's one of a kind - act fast and you can be the only one around with this Explorer Custom Widow!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags and Paperwork
