Gibson Explorer E/2 1979 - 1984Walnut or Mahogany, Maple, Ebony  There’s a lot of confusion over the Explorer model of the early eighties. The model went through a chaotic evolution process, changing construction as fast as names. Open any blue book, and you will find those guitars filed alternatively under E/2, CMT, Explorer 2 or The Explorer. The original E/2 version has a beveled laminated body and, because of its Maple/Walnut pancake construction, turns out as a rather heavy guitar, nearing 12-13lbs. The E/2 CMT (as in Curly Maple Top), more classic in shape and construction, is lighter weight and amazingly good looking. Dirty, Dirty, Dirty Fingers…
