Overview

While Gibson officially switched the design of the Explorer to the E2 in 1979, a few examples of the original Explorer design leaked out of Gibson's factory through the early '80s. Eventually, the '80s redesigns of the Explorer would lack staying power, and Gibson returned to this design in 1990 with the Flying V '76.
