So you can play the guitar eh?
But, are you ready for the "GIG"?
If you are a collector of the 80's Japanese Matsumoku Plant Era guitars then consider this. It is a RARE Explorer branded "GIG". So rare that there is little to no info on the web on the GIG brand. It might also have to do with the difficult search keywords as well.
The GIG is pretty much an ARIA PRO II ZZ. It was Made In Japan about the same time Aria's were. The only difference is the lack of contour on the edges. Who knows maybe some of the ZZ's had the same profile? Also, the head shape is just a little different.
Under the hood, the Pup's are:

Under the hood, the Pup's are:
- Neck: Probably OG Gotoh stamped Super Distortion knock-off.
- Bridge: Vintage USA DiMarzio. Not sure of the model (probably Super Distortion).
Condition:
- Everything functions as it should.
- The finish is heavily gouged, nicked, and scratched.
- See pics of the body and neck area for damage from strap locks.
- Bottom corner is chipped off.
- Extra holes around jack plate
- Bent 1st tuner
- Missing back plate
- Bridge SD is al little too wide for the cavity. So, the height only goes so high.
- Hairline cracks on the body on either side of the neck joint. They do now affect anything. They do now go all the way through.
- STC Tremolo works. Needs arm (standard thread).
- Various tarnishing on metal parts.
