In August 2011, federal authorities raided Gibson's Nashville facility and confiscated a quantity of wood, much of it rosewood. After the material was later returned, Gibson used some of that rosewood to create the fretboards featured on this special-edition model. The Government Series Explorer combines authentic Gibson tone, distinctive styling, and U.S.-made craftsmanship in a guitar that stands out as both a player's instrument and a noteworthy collectible.\n  \u003c\/em\u003e\n \u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n \u003cb\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Condition Notes:  Used\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n \u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n A few tiny dings and finish chips throughout.
