Epiphone Explorer scale

<< < (2/2)

uwe:
The 34" neck of the Epi is one of the reasons why it sounds better than the 32" eighties Gibbie Explorers. The E string on the Epi is commanding, on the Gibsons just so-so or even less.

godofthunder:
 I think Epi did a great job with the V, Explorer and the EB3. If Gibson had issued these basses I think they would have had winners. I love my epi EB3, ok so I put a 60's mudbucker in it.

Iome:
Thanks for the answers, in fact i've heard the Gibbys where 32" and hoped he Epi was too. I'd like to try a 32" scale bass, that's the point.

And welcome! Post some pics of your bass.
