Last week, Gibson CEO Cesar Gueikian shared the latest progress update on a long-term project he’d been teasing on his Instagram over the past number of weeks.
It was a mystery electric guitar dubbed CEO2, which bears a striking resemblance to James Hetfield’s ‘So What’ Explorer.
At the time, it was theorized that CEO2 was being created as a gift for the Metallica frontman, however that was not the case.
CEO2’s owner has been officially revealed and it’s Jason Momoa.
The Aquaman star announced his latest high-profile Gibson in a new post on Instagram, in which he revealed he wanted the CEO2 as a birthday present for his 16-year-old son, with whom he shares a deep affection for Metallica’s music.
Momoa wrote on Insta, “When the universe is listening, moments like this happen. In my heart, I’ve been searching for an Explorer just like Papa Het’s – something that would make my son freak out. I raised him on @metallica.”
