The Unofficial Hardest bass to locate list

[fretless]

damn I can't find a Gibson Explorer anywhere , well I found 2 and that's about it , you guys who have them I see big $ in the future for these instruments , damn so what do I do with all this pink fur now .

[The Hammer]

get an Epiphone Explorer. Much cheaper and much better than the 80's gibson explorers. The guitars and basses Gibson made in the 80's aren't of the best build quality.

Ibanez Bean Bass...

The Explore was their flagship though , but I agree , even if by sight alone on some of those fuglyass things :D

I played plenty of those pieces of crap back in the 80's when they came out, V's as well. Nobody wanted them which is probably why there aren't that many around now.

I would say this bass is a little harder to come by than the Explorer:)

That looks more like the roadstar version of that bass.
