As a Lefty I’ve never seen a Left Handed Gibson Explorer before, and with reasonable price from Thomann I made the jump to buy it. I already own a lefty V, but the Explorer balances far better on a strap, is more comfortable to play whilst sitting, and the toggle switch and knobs are better situated to find whilst playing. Just be careful walking through doors and down narrow corridors because it’s a long guitar! It has a very clear, bright modern tone, and excellent medium sized neck and smooth frets, very happy with my purchase.
