About the Gibson Explorer

The Gibson Explorer has been in Gibson's lineup since 1958 β€” over 68 years of continuous production, which speaks to how well it has been received. Gibson has been building instruments in the United States since 1902.

Buying Guide

  • 1Play the guitar unplugged first β€” if it resonates and sustains well acoustically, it'll likely sound good amplified.
  • 2Check the frets for wear. Flat spots and divots mean a fret level or refret may be needed ($200-400).
  • 3Plug in and test every pickup position, and roll the tone and volume knobs through their full range to check for crackling.
