This increasingly rare 2012 Epiphone Goth '58 Explorer in Pitch Black is a modern take on the classic Explorer silhouette, finished in a deep matte black with matching headstock for a cohesive, aggressive look. This example has been professionally upgraded with EMG pickups — active humbuckers that deliver higher output, tight low‑end, and articulate mids for heavy rhythm and searing lead tones while reducing noise. The body is mahogany with a set neck construction and a 22‑fret rosewood fingerboard on a 24.75" scale, offering the familiar warm sustain and comfortable playability players expect from Gibson‑style designs.
Notes:
This 2012 Epiphone Goth '58 Explorer Electric Guitar is in Excellent condition, part of a single-owner, climate controlled collection, with extremely light wear (pictured) consistent with age and only the most occasional home use. EMG active pickup set professionally installed, does not include original passive pickups. White pickguard professionally installed, does not include original black pickguard.
