Well, that's a start...I'm just hoping mudfuzz won't have to start posting thunderbird pictures. I mean, I let an ironbird slide in...I would have thought more people would have explorers. Especially deans.
Hows this?
T-bird pict still pending

It's on "eternity of fire and poking"

This might be old new, but did you know that Epiphone is doing limited editions of their explorer's and V's? They're up on MF right now.
I just noticed this yesterday.

This is old news, but nevertheless relevant and welcomed. When are they gonna be on epiphone's website?!
Hi everyone, I'd like to be part of this club!
'84 Gibson Explorer; well used and abused. In my possession since '92. Great bass!

If you don't mind, could you please measure the string pitch (center to center distance) at bridge and at nut? And what is the string nut length? I even emailed Gibson and they don't have a record to check (can you believe it?). So I'd be grateful if you can take 30 seconds and measure them.
Thanks.
Here you go, measured in inches for my convenience 
Pitch at bridge: 2.25 inches
Pitch at nut: 1.50 inches
Nut length: 1.75 inches
Pitch measurements are outside edges of strings (not center to center), so remove a couple millimeters for exact exactedness.
