Experience the iconic 80s Explorer™, a guitar that has defined rock music since its debut in 1958. While its futuristic design caught the attention of guitarists in the ‘70s, it was during the hard-rocking '80s that the Explorer truly became a legend, embraced by some of the greatest players of the decade.
Inspired by the 1984 Classic
The new 80s Explorer™ is a tribute to the popular 1984 model, delivering the same powerful sound and bold design that made it a staple of rock history. It features a SlimTaper™ mahogany neck for fast, smooth playability, paired with a rosewood fretboard that adds warmth to every note.
Unmatched Tone and Sustain
The mahogany body of the 80s Explorer™ is equipped with new 80s Tribute pickups, meticulously designed to capture the fat, rich tones and sustaining power that defined the sound of the era. Whether you’re playing crunchy riffs or soaring solos, this guitar delivers the distinctive sound that made the original Explorer a favorite among rock’s elite.
Iconic Design, Now in Ebony
With its unmistakable shape and powerful presence, the 80s Explorer™ is more than just a guitar—it’s a statement. Now available in a sleek Ebony finish, this guitar is as visually striking as it is sonically impressive.
