Left Handed Gibson Explorer Guitars

Are you a left hand guitarist in the market for a lefty Explorer?
Keep looking... because they are not manufacturing any in the near future.

Gibson currently does not make any lefthanded Explorers. You may get lucky on eBay or maybe at a used instrument store, but chances are you won't. From a friend of a friend I was told that there was a limited number of Explorers built from 1983 - 1988. I have seen one of these classics first hand so I know they are out there.

I have checked out the site Explorer Guitars and they do have a section for left handed versions. The only problem is they appear to be looking for the elusive lefthanded Explorer guitar also. They also started a left handed Explorer petition. Another option for the lefty seems to be a custom Explorer. There are quite a few manufacturers who will create a custom Explorer copy if you've got the money, of course. There's also a company located in Australia called "Gaskell Guitars" who make lefty Explorers. Good luck.
