    Gibson 3-Point Bridge to High-Mass Bridge Conversion

    Hello, I recently decided to buy an Explorer DIY kit; one problem is it has holes for a 3-Point Bridge. Could I plug the holes and replace it with a high-mass bridge? Does anyone know if this will work, or has tried it before?

    Is the Epiphone Explorer bass really as crappy as they say?

    I recently just got the opportunity to trade someone my LTD B-4E for an 2015 Korina Explorer Epiphone Bass. This bass looks badass but feel and tone are everything. I’ve been reading that these are not good basses, which I find hard to believe that they could be so widely disliked. Do any of...

    Explorer Gig bag options

    I recently got an Epi Exploder and it's pretty fun. It's a bit of a chonk at ~9.8lbs but the case is a massive 15.8lbs.... For reference here it is vs my G&L case which is 11lbs with some goodies in it. I've seen this one but guessing by the dimensions it'd be close and may or may not...

    Epiphone Explorer - Neck Dive Button location

    Leaning B here but though I'd ask for the dive mitigation strap button placement. B is both farther forward and also recessed a bit so less interference when in the case. I don't THINK there'll be issues with going straight into the neck heel. Shouldn't be deep enough to hit the truss rod or...
