The Flying V was introduced in the 1950s, a time when Sci-Fi was the flavour of the moment. It's no surprise therefore that the V was met with mixed views - it continues to turn heads and divide opinion to this day. The new models retain all of the V's most definitive mojo. The Antique Natural version is designed as a direct tip of the hat, while the B-2 brings hotter pickups and stripped-back looks that ooze attitude.
The Gibson Explorer was released alongside the Flying V in the late 1950s, also to a mixed reaction. Fast forward to the 21st Century, and Gibson's new Explorer features a number of design tweaks that strike the balance between old-school and precision.

The Captain is proof that lessons and jamming with more experienced players makes you a better player. He has made some serious strides in the past year or so.
THIS /\
Absolutely !
Did he recently take lessons?
I still wish he'd sit down with the guys at least 10, 20, or 30 minutes a day and just work on basic ascending/descending patterns though. Alternate picking all the way through. Not to shred, but just to have more technical skills to express himself more.
Ryan Flinn with Justin guitar. They filmed them.
Whta if I want them all? Pete should play more with 'buckers... he sounds amazing. Lee seems happier than ever. Hail to the Captain!
You guys rocked in this one. Famous Explorer player: Allen Collins - Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird lead played on that guitar. 👍
Also Matthias Jabs of Scorpions
Jeff Carlisi of 38 Special played an Explorer clone hand made by Georgia luthier-sold maple body with inlaid rosewood pickguard-must way a ton!
James hetfield had a gibson explorer back around the Lighting and Puppets era along with his gibson V
Indeed and Allen's Explorer was an original layer 50s too. So all the badassery
I came here specifically to say that. Run the strap over the top and bang out ‘Call me the Breeze’ 😎
honestly one of the best intro jams ever!!!
He also used it on Knockin On Heaven's Door.
"You have, uh, changed guitars to the Christopher Columbus signature model" this edit part was utter hilarity. 10/10 for cap throwing dad jokes over Pete's head
Dad jokes?
Can confirm. I'm a dad and I would have made that kind of joke.
Lee those lessons are really paying off. Pete ,sounding phenomenal as always
Allen Collins played an Explorer and that’s about all that matters. 🤘🏻
Allen Collins from Lynyrd Skynyrd only used the Explorer and had the Tremolo tailpiece! Watch Free Bird live from Oakland Coliseum from 1977 on UA-cam it's awesome!
Still gives me chills and makes me run around the room jumping and playing air guitar like I was 12 still😛
He got the Explorer from Clapton too. He used Firebirds before
That moment when the final solo is kicking in and the crowd is going bonkers is total, beautiful magic.
He used fire birds and a strat as well. But by far my favorite was the explorer with maestro bridge.
"Is there a more manly look?"
"Yes, on your knees!"
Awesome!
It's how you can tell they are both married.
Well, that and the dad jokes... 😏
Somewhere around 24:00 you can witness Lee very breafly turn into Rob.
Rory, you need a tumbleweed graphic to roll across the screen in the whistling wind after one of the Captain's 'jokes'.
Captain's chops have noticeably improved over the last couple of months. Awesome stuff!
It's the added confidence in what he's playing that really shows, the notes sound better when they're played with intent.
Pete goes into a massive riff/solo jam to remind Lee what he is aiming for... but Lee is definitely playing the best guitar he has ever played
Keep it up! Old dogs do learn new tricks.
I love the jam so much. You guys are great and having a blast
I'm loving the new range. Another great vid gents.
Bring back the blanket!!!!!!
Greaaat! Love to hear pete on some humbuckers🖤
Their is a great Gibson Flying V
guitar player from England still ripping it up
with great music and writing skills !
His name is Andy Powell of the fantastic Wishbone Ash !!
Once you finish the series can you choose your favorite of each model and make a video compiting against each other?
And you should ABSOLUTELY! do a sound like Albert King, 100%!!!!!!!
The Captain's wailing...great progress shown... kudos.
Having fun...what guitar playing should be about! Enjoying these Gibson videos.
That jam that's starts around 21:52
Wow....sounds amazing and keeps me coming back to this video
Gary Moore played an Explorer before he went more blues
Must admit I love the Natural wood looking 'V' :)
My main guitar for the past [nearly] 20 years has been an Epiphone '67 Flying V. I find they're very comfortable to play sitting down if you know how to hold them... the caveat being if you're trying to sit on the floor.
I think the V between your legs is the best position to play guitar. Pretty similar to some classical players.
Slash used an Explorer for the recording of Locomotive
And knockin on heavens door
Lee is really getting good on guitar. Nice tasty licks excellent tone!! He dosent stray into shreddy nonsense!!
Matthias Jabs from Scorpions played an Explorer and Rudolf Schenker played a V
Matthias played a Hamer blitz
oprah_did_9/11 his first guitar with the Scorpions was a 1976 Gibson Explorer, later he got guitars build from a german guitar builder
@@siwiaz5494 His first guitar with them was a 70s strat, and not to long after he got a Gibson Explorer. Around the Animal Magnetism tour he got his second Explorer, which he customized with the black stripes to make his signature look (In addition to his Blackie strat with the first style floyd rose + routed humbucker). Around 1986-87 he got with the Gibson custom shop to build an Explorer 90% of the body (Explorer E90), with a floyd rose and 24 fret neck. More recently both Rudi and he get their guitars from Boris Dommenget, with Rudi making some absurd and cool V models (mostly following car brands/styles) and Jabs mostly following the E90 style to make his own signature Dommenget EX90 along with a signature custom strat (Dommenget MasterCaster) with a floyd rose HSH setup and beefier body/headstock.
I love playing Vs while sitting. Makes me sit straight and not slouch so much for some reason.
I thought the same thing about my explorer case when I got my explorer, it's a huge case!! Lol love what you guys do, keep up the good work, love from middle America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Damn Captain your playing has gotten so good lately. Keep it up dude. Love you guys!
That awkwardness when you don't know how to hold V guitar when sitting down. :D
14:02 Lee accidentally writes a Greta Van Fleet song
But, that's impossible. Those dudes have NEVER heard of any bands outside the US remember? Led who? What's a Rush?
They are 100% authentic with ZERO influences.
@@jfiery u mad bro?
@@noname.___ nah, too many real things in the world to be pissed about than to really be bothered over a couple of kids from somewhere in the Midwest of the US denying any knowledge of Zep or that they may have influenced their music. Was just making a joke that obviously didn't land. Thanks for being concerned though. Haha
@@jfiery they don't deny it lol do your research before you insult people
@@noname.___ they said their primary influence was Aerosmith in one interview, in others they said other obsure bands. Even Robert Plant got a laugh out if it. Maybe lately they're fessing up to the obvious, if so good for them. Maybe you're thier manager or an extremely dedicated fan boy. So congrats on a job well done defending their amazing originality. From stage mannerisms, to costumes, to licks those guys are one of a kind. Enjoy your crusade, Im not the 1st to make this point so best of luck reaching out to the rest of those who think like I do. It's going to take a lifetime to accomplish so get to it. But if you need some kind of personal validation that you're right you won't get it here so please find another parked car to chase. This really doesn't matter to me. Enjoy your day.
Nice playing lads. Something about the Explorer in natural has me.
Yes completely agree. I want one
Is it just me or has the Captains playing improved significantly? Well done mate!
You must feel great about your playing compared to the minor pentatonic days lee
Still very functional scale but knowing how scales combine with chord progressions has revolutionised your playing
You're proper great compared to a year ago
Good on you and Pete man ...you are a glorious player
Love your videos with you both
Thank you
phenomenal playing yet again guys! My GAS just keeps getting worse! ✌🏼
"In the morning, don't say you luv me...cuz I'll only kick you out of the door..."
damn sounding great guys. i love the Chappers and the captain videos a lot too, but the Jams in there videos are amazing. And you just gotta love Pete.
17:24 :D Seriously this is my favorite Anderton's video recently. Superb jamming, channeling the Captain's inner rock demon, Pete stellar as usual, Lee's stank face during the dirty bits. Solid Gold.
Rick Derringer played Explorer in the late 70's
Wow the new design of the flying V....! It looks exactly like a flying V.?.!.?.!
Idk id rather have the Christopher Columbus signature model
Cosmo Heath lol
Im kinda missing Rob and how he can make Vs looking ergonomicaly well made guitar.
I never liked the look of V's....until I saw Michael Schenker play one.
AS much as I love Chappers, that was very pleasing to watch you guys jam.
I like to hear the Captain getting ever so much better and more inspirational with his guitar playing.
Great to see Lee and Pete having so much fun. Guitars are cool. Gibson are killing it.
I normally have these vid's playing in the background and listen to them without watching. I can usually spot if it's Lee or Pete soloing. Today I got it wrong - Nice one, Kudos!
Cap, you're right about the switch on the Explorer. I have a Legator Ninja (basically an Explorer) with a Floyd Rose with the pup switch with the knobs and it is a PAIN to get to on the fly!
The Capt.'s playing was really good in this video dang
Nice Ronnie Wood tribute for yesterday by playing stay with me and happy birthday Charlie Watts for today , oh my
Thanks for reviewing these, I think they are ace guitars and often get ignored in favour of the Les Paul and SG.
When I started watching Anderson’s years ago, they were a group of guys I literally, strange as it seems, sort of grew to know.it’s like a UA-cam family. I hope that is taken as a compliment, because it’s exactly that. It was a cool place to “virtually” hang out. Lee was a very cool owner who noodled around a little, and then would let Rob take over. He had some very cool, close friends who obviously help him, and give back to him because he was there for them. Now, he owns me of the most popular music establishment on the planet. Lee not only understands the products he sells, in addition, I believe he is an inspiration for young to middle aged people. At his age, and I mean this; the man is a guitarist, who through the obvious love of what he does, kicked that door down, man, and is truly a player now. He’s to you Lee!
Clapton played one live in the 70s. Also Lynard Skynard.
I really dig Danish Pete's playing. I could listen to Pete and Lee jam all day long.
Claudio Sanchez from Coheed & Cambria plays an explorer.
I wish you could post photos in the comments because a screenshot at 9:03 is my favourite thing
Oh my god that is funny! This years best screenshot.
Intro kinda sounded like a slowed down "Stay with Me" by R.Stewart & the Faces. Some very cool axes there Capt & Pete.
THANK YOU for leaving this comment 4 years ago. Watching old Andertons vids and couldn’t place the tune for some reason.
Would have driven me crazy, thank you😂
Explorers are a bit unwieldy at first because of how large the body is, but the way they balance when played standing up feels extremely nice.
HOLY CRAP the BurstBucker 2 with dirt on Pete's guitar sounds unreal! I love it! There's just something about the tones you can get from a V, man. SO good. I gotta get me one of these!
I love the black V it sounds awesome with the plimsoul and rock/power chords.
Rickey Medlocke sold me on the Explorer back in the 1970s. My '76 reissue sleeps under a red silk sheet :P
U2s "The Edge" also plays an Explorer.
You should do a ‘odd shape’ challenge, explorer vs meteora etc 👊
The Vs are missing the rubber? strip that was meant to help sat down playing. I'm sure someone will do an after-market add on though.
I love Vs, but the best part of the video is Lee's pose tips
Real impressed with the tones of the V. And, I’m not a V guy either.
they are awkward but have a special sound! i love em!
Do they still wire the V B-2 as the original 1 vol, 1 tone, 3 way switch with the cap soldered from the tone pot to vol pot for "vintage" tone?? Or is it now wired "modern", with cap soldered back to the tone pot??
I can't wait for the ES 235 demo...please do some crunch!
Loved that intro jam. Very Beatle-esque.
Lee's tone with the Modern explorer in that solo was awesome!
wow!! awesome playing lee has really gotten good in the past few years
Gibson used to do a Lzzy Hale Signature Explorer in white a few years ago.. They also recently released a Lzzy Hale Signature in black probably two years ago. Now Epiphone has the white signature model for her. Both of them are sexy instruments, with the gold accents and hardware. Been wanting a black one since they were released.
Gotta love the look The Captain (rock eye) gets when he proceeds to rock! Perfect example in the intro!
Picked up one of the O.G series 2019 Explorers a month ago. Luckily it was one of the ones released in 2018 so it was last years price! The case is basically a door and the neck pickup cavity is too shallow but other than that it's a beast!
Pete is having way too much fun with that V. Love his playing and demos.
omg...seriously glorious tones...I want that black one!
Captain & Pete, two guys you can't imagine without a Flying V!
Can we leave the pickguard off the black explorer or is it covering something up? My preference would be no pickguard and it looks like the electronics are not under the plastic.
That intro jam was like Eric Clapton and Albert King jammed over Sgt Pepper's lonely hearts club band!
More like jamming on Stay With Me by the Faces.
@@seanbean4682 Well spotted Bit of down and dirty Ronnie wood
Once again, Captain Lee Anderton finds his hidden inner rocker. Somewhere, Rob Chappers smiles at seeing Lee tune his low E string down to D!😎
Hey, Pete, what is like to sit with while playing a V?
Just want to say that the feel of Lee is great!!! The other guys in the videos might be better musicians or better players, but for some reason I just love the soul of Lee's playing. The lessons have payed of. And dare I to say that I hope he does not get much better than he is at the moment? Great stuff. So thumbs up for the Captain.
Liked it for the intro. Now I can watch the rest...soon :D
That was a perfect intro jam for the V Great! Pete's V sounds perfect! what tone. Maybe it's because I'm getting old but the Dirty Fingers don't appeal to me much anymore. But I bet the B2 plays great otherwise. oh and back in the mid-'70's Paul Stanley played a black V and Ace Frehley was known to grab a natural finished Explorer on tour. Also Matthias Jabs of the Scorpions a master Explorer player with Rudolf Schenker on his V
Pretty impressed on Cap's playing evolution! Every new video is more tasteful and he es more confident! Me likey likey!
Was there an SG video?
Both guitarists from the band Airborne play explores also but they maybe not so famous but a killer Australian rock band sort of like AC/DC
The captain playing skills have improved a lot!
The fart at 17:24 though, lol
Damn I thought that was a Gibson Firebird like Edgar Winter played! Great video!
When are you doing the jr and special??
Clapton played an Explorer for a while in the seventies. Gary Moore played one as well:-)
Claudio Sanchez - Coheed and Cambria :D
"this is my Gibson Explorer, it's a piece of shit"
haha such a boss
Is that a magnatone on top of the Zilla cab beside Pete?
Perfectly timed entrance there with the sandman...
Some (more or less) famous Explorer users: Rudolf Schenker, Rick Medlocke, Pete Willis, Joel O´Keefe, Rock 'n' Rolf.
Oops, Matthias Jabs rather than Rudulf Schenker. Oh well, same band.
The reason they sound different despite having exact same hardware is the massive chunk of wood behind the bridge on the explorer. It gives it a thicker sound.
Edge is my favorite Explorer player, personally. 👍🏻👍🏻
That jam in the middle made this cookie extra tasty! Cheers lads!
Do a blind fold challenge with the new Les Paul's with some of the old 2019/18 models and a custom shop or two thrown in.
I suspect that even when blindfolded, most people would be able to tell whether they're playing a V, an Explorer or a Paul. Somehow.
@@Dudfoot I was saying do it with the new and old Les Paul's, not the explorers and Vs
