These were standard, the ltd Ed was the brownburst Explorer for £700 still, these had the finish on them, so, no wear and tear.
Lovely bass, practically a Tbird but for £900 I'd be over the moon ^_^

Quite a few places did advertise them as a Ltd Edition run in late 2011, not just these guys http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=7&ved=0CEIQFjAG&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.themusiczoo.com%2Fproduct%2F7223%2FGibson-Limited-Edition-Explorer-Bass-Silverburst%2F&ei=jNSxUpCULo3d7QaizIGQCw&usg=AFQjCNGouJjXowihK_1Ly0BlKWCJDLSfoA
So, they will not be the easiest of basses to get hold of. Sorely tempted.
Bump.
