Epiphone SG Prophecy Electric Guitar – Aged Jet Black Metallic
The Epiphone SG Prophecy Electric Guitar – Aged Jet Black Metallic is a solidbody electric guitar that combines cutting-edge electronics and modern ergonomics with a time-tested pedigreed design. Its double-horned mahogany body brandishes an extra-thin Aged Vintage Gloss polyurethane finish for added visual flair, while its set mahogany neck is updated with a shred-friendly asymmetrical SlimTaper shape. Likewise, the SG Prophecy’s bound 12-inch-radius ebony fingerboard has been expanded to 24 frets, equipping you with two full octaves of lightning-fast playability. No matter what type of tone you’re aiming for, you’ll be blown away by the far-reaching sonic palette provided by the SG Prophecy’s proprietary active Fishman Fluence humbuckers. This stage-ready instrument is fortified by a state-of-the-art Graph Tech NuBone nut, rock-solid Grover locking tuners, and tried-and-tested Posi-lok strap locks. Players searching for a classic-style instrument with loads of modern appointments will be positively captivated by the Epiphone SG Prophecy — this old-school axe is seriously ready to rip!
Designed for fleet-fingered fretboard maneuvers
At first glance, this solidbody electric guitar might look like a standard-issue SG, but once you wrap your hand around the SG Prophecy’s mahogany neck, you’ll think otherwise. Its updated asymmetrical take on the ’60s-era SlimTaper shape offers a level of playability that vintage-style instruments simply can’t match. Moreover, the SG Prophecy includes an expanded 24-fret ebony fingerboard, providing the extra real estate you’ll need to unleash your complete arsenal of finger gymnastics. Finally, thanks to jumbo-size frets, you’ll be able to execute massive bends without any worries about fretting out.
Tone-packed active Fishman Fluence humbuckers
Epiphone packed the SG Prophecy with a proprietary set of active Fishman Fluence humbuckers. A truly cutting-edge innovation, the SG Prophecy’s Fishman Fluence pickups deliver the sound of modern high-output humbuckers, classic PAF-style humbuckers, and shimmering single-coils, all easily accessible via the guitar’s push-pull control knobs. Many guitarists are all-in Fishman Fluence devotees, as the extensive sonic arsenal provided by these state-of-the-art active pickups puts them in a class all by themselves. From high-gain shred to hard-rock thunder to crystal-clear cleans, the Epiphone SG Prophecy will tackle the gamut of playing situations with surefire confidence.
Bring down the house with high-performance hardware
The SG Prophecy is a rock-solid performer, thanks to a well-stocked arsenal of pro-level hardware. For starters, this near-bulletproof instrument includes a Graph Tech NuBone nut to maximize string vibration for optimal volume, tone, and harmonics. Next, you get Grover locking Rotomatic tuning machines, which offer rock-solid reliability and lightning-quick string changes. A set of Posi-lok strap locks rounds out the SG Prophecy’s stage-ready features, safeguarding your new axe against potentially catastrophic mid-set stage dives.
