The signature Explorer "hockey stick" headstock showcases a raised Epiphone 3D nickel logo and is equipped with a Graph Tech nut and Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners for dependable tuning stability. A 2-ply black truss rod cover engraved with a reproduction of Lzzy Hale's signature and a sleek black stinger on the rear of the headstock add custom touches. At the opposite end, strings ride over a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and secure to a LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece, delivering accurate intonation and long-lasting sustain.
Driving the Lzzy Hale Explorer Custom is a matched set of Epiphone ProBucker Ignite pickups, engineered for power and clarity. Each pickup connects to its own volume control, along with a shared master tone control topped with a silver Speed knob for precise tone shaping. A three-way pickup selector toggle allows easy access to either pickup or both together. Designed for crushing tones and standout style, Lzzy's Explorer Custom is purpose-built for heavy music. A hardshell case is included to protect it while traveling. Make a statement onstage and beyond, both sonically and visually, with this commanding new Artist Model from Epiphone.
