Description

The Epiphone Explorer™ 80s EMG pays tribute to the iconic 1984 Explorer, capturing the bold looks and crushing tones that helped define hard rock and metal throughout the 1980s. Its mahogany body and fast-playing mahogany neck with a 60s SlimTaper™ profile provide the feel, resonance, and sustain that made the Explorer a favorite of legendary players.

Equipped with active EMG™ pickups, including an EMG 60 in the neck position and an EMG 81 in the bridge, the Explorer™ 80s EMG delivers massive output, tight low end, and rich sustain suited for everything from heavy rhythm work to soaring leads. Premium appointments like a Graph Tech® nut, LockTone Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece, and mini die-cast tuners ensure exceptional tuning stability and dependable performance.
