With a sleek new update of the classic design combined with high output EMG pickups, the "1984" is a whole new Explorer.

    Comments about Epiphone 1984 Explorer EX Electric Guitar:

    You cannot go wrong with this guitar. It comes loaded with EMG 81's. You can also use it for old school rock and some blues style music. This guitar has a quick neck action and feel. My wife bought me the white model. I also have the Epiphone Wayne Static V. Epiphone is just as good as Gibson and Esp. Don't be afraid.

    It also comes with Epiphone Strap Locks.

      Awesome

      By Jared Maynard

      from West "By God" Virginia

      Comments about Epiphone 1984 Explorer EX Electric Guitar:

      Even with the problem i had this guitar still shreds and is a great value, but it hasn't replaced my Jackson Randy Rhoads as my main guitar!! Although, it is my permanent backup and sounds awesome.
      This guitar is built for metal. I've been playing some Amon Amarth tunes on this guitar and it's right on to their sound. This guitar is amazing for the price and quality. If your looking for a classic shape metal guitar this is the one to buy! The neck is sleek and built for speed and the EMG's are an excellent combination. And the Explorer shape is undeniably metal as it gets!
      Although its a great guitar quality could be better. I had to fix the toggle switch which wouldn't work except on bridge pickup which was a task for my local guitar shop. Now the problem is fixed but should have been caught by quality control. Other than that the frets could be a little smoother.
      For the price you can't beat it once you get it setup right for you!!!!

      Amazing guitar

      By Andrew Schmidt

      from Wisconsin

      Comments about Epiphone 1984 Explorer EX Electric Guitar:

      It's amazing. i love it, i would never sell it in my life. i got a white one from sam ash but its the same guitar.
      Awesome, set neck, emgs, and grover tuners. comes standard with everything you need. gave it an 8 because i would prefer neckthrough, and an emg 60 instead of an 85.
      No problems with it at all. plays great and sounds great.
      Goes above and beyond any gibson ive ever played.. matches quality of ESP/LTD guitars for the same price
