Modern Style, Sound, and Playability — This SG Delivers!
While it pays homage to a tried-and-true classic, the Epiphone SG Prophecy boasts modern style, sound, and playability. This solidbody electric guitar features a mahogany body along with an attractive hard-maple top — an attention-grabbing departure from the SG’s typical workhorse design. The SG Prophecy is chock-full of tone, including vintage and modern humbucker voices, plus hum-free single-coil textures, courtesy of a duo of Fishman Fluence pickups. It’s also eminently playable, with a super-comfortable, asymmetrical SlimTaper-shaped mahogany neck, a fast-playing 24-fret ebony fingerboard, and a smooth-feeling contoured heel. This SG’s Grover-locking Rotomatic tuners supply rock-solid tuning stability and ultra-fast string changes, while a LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge and Graph Tech NuBone nut give you incredible clarity and near-endless sustain. The SG Prophecy is topped off to perfection with eye-catching custom binding and a sharp-looking aged gloss finish.

Multi-voice Fluence humbuckers provide three distinct voices
History’s most sought-after electric guitar tones will be yours when you pick up the SG Prophecy, thanks to its multi-voice Fishman Fluence humbucking pickups. A simple push-pull of the guitar’s volume and tone pots is all it takes to harness these active pickups’ three unique, selectable voices. Revel in a warm PAF-like sound with vintage dynamics and output. Kick it into overdrive with a modern-sounding, high-octane humbucker tone. Unwind with hum-free single-coil textures, highlighted by punchy mids and glassy, shimmering highs. Whatever sound you’re aiming for, the SG Prophecy will serve it up on a silver platter.
Asymmetrical SlimTaper neck provides maximum comfort and speed
Playability is one of the most important elements of a solidbody electric guitar, and the Epiphone SG Prophecy doesn’t disappoint. Its mahogany neck features an ergonomic asymmetrical SlimTaper shape that begs you to wrap your hand around it. Its 12-inch-radius ebony fingerboard sports 24 jumbo frets, and it feels like greased lightning. A contoured heel makes accessing this guitar’s higher frets effortless. This endlessly playable axe has what it takes to become your new number one, both onstage and in the studio.
