Are Explorer guitars worth the hype?

What I love: The shape
What I hate: The shape
I own a epiphone Korina wood 58 copy, it's super light, and lovely to play. Put Zack wilde emg pickups in it, it slays.
1:30 get a better grippier strap
I have a Westcreek Revenge, its sort of an Ibanez destroyer copy. Its not too heavy, and it doesn't neck dive,but I want to put the strap button on the back higher up to make it more balanced. I upgraded the tuners, bridge and pickups and its pretty awesome.
Had 5 of them, none neck dove , move the front strap button to1/2" behind neck tenon
I play mostly seated. The reason why I hate explorers is because I can't put the guitar on my left leg while playing. It's annoying really.
Have you considered to buy a flying v,make a video a about it
get a strap that grips your cloths better. dive problem solved.
In my opinion I think the flying v is better
Explorer is the GOAT body style
I like the explorer shape because it fits my wrist position when standing but I also despise the shape because of the neck dive and I’m unable to play it comfortably sitting down because I play with a classical position
I just tried out my first explorer guitar today at guitar center. Loved it. Sounded good and looks better
Get a leather strap with unfinished leather on the backside..No neck dive ever again
James hetfield is my favorite rhythm guitarist and frontman because…
1. He's funny
2. Vocals
3. EET FUK
4. YEAH
5. Flying V
6. 2nd best drummer in the band
7. He's aged very well over the years
8. Vocals are still intact
9. Haha
10. BEST FUCKING FRONTMAN EVER
The way i fix the neck dive is to simply place the strap over the body by the bottom strap button
The more I watch these videos the more I doubt on if I really want to buy an explorer as my first electric guitar
My epi is a dog. Never again epi. frets need crowning and edges are shape floyd stinks and reply from epi The copies are better than this
Youre right, it bangs on everything! I got the red lizzy hale and my luthor says the frets are so bad it needs a fret dress, and thats a new £2k guitar! Sounds bloody amazing though
Sooooo a less annoying Dean ml?
????
Ok lemme just stick with my LP
Funny stuff. Now do one for BC RICH!
What case is that? I got a gibson explorer and I've been searching for a slim case. How does it compare to the normal gibson case? (weight too) I see it's a bit smaller
I'm getting my first guitar in december. What shape should it be?
I hve a Kelly but the exact same problems
The only thing I hate is the fucking size of the case!
Ahahahahaha????
Explorers are not worth it a hollow body is way better ergonomics is better and everything explorers are just metal elitist guitars
Make a video about Les Paul or SG
Hahhahaha the best video I've seen
I'm getting the same guitar as my second guitar after a jackson js11, and it should be fun… Hopefully
Similar to Hetfield's EET FUK you should have a sticker for it that says TABE RNAK
You forgot to say that it is very pretty
So this was actually a hidden commercial ????
Why I love the 80s version of the explorer: Toggle switch is closer to the rest of the controls.
And I thought I'm the only one with all these problems ???? btw what's the name of the case ? Thanks ????
Most of those guitar shapes are mostly for looks… So yea
so… guess i'll get the firebird instead
I cant play guitar, but always wanted explorer guitar cuz of its beauty
