All the modern performance of the Flying V, taken to the highest level
The Epiphone Prophecy series has been completely reimagined for guitarists who demand uncompromising playing speed, precision, and sonic power. More than an evolution, it is a total reinvention of the instrument. Designed to meet the expectations of today's most demanding musicians, the new Prophecy series combines Epiphone's rich heritage with performance-driven innovations to deliver refined, powerful instruments uncompromisingly designed for modern guitarists.
Powerful, expressive, and featuring a bold design, the models in the Prophecy series embody the vanguard of Epiphone's Modern collection. They combine premium build quality, advanced sonic flexibility, and high-end specifications designed for the most demanding modern musical styles.
The new Prophecy Flying V™ perfectly embodies this vision. It features a satin-finished mahogany Flying V body, enhanced with a highly flamed maple top. The top is also adorned with multi-ply binding. The thermally treated one-piece maple neck also features a satin finish, providing a particularly smooth playing feel. Reinforced with graphite truss rods for enhanced stability and long-term reliability, the neck features an Hyperglide profile designed for speed. Its extended 25.5-inch scale length is perfectly suited for modern tunings, providing greater tension, precision, and definition for lower tunings. The ebony fretboard with binding features a compound 10 to 14-inch radius and accommodates 24 stainless steel frets for exceptionally fast, smooth, and durable playing. Black mother-of-pearl block inlays complete its sleek and stealthy aesthetic. The Flying V headstock with multi-ply binding features the Epiphone logo and a split diamond Custom inlay for a decidedly premium look.
The black nickel hardware enhances the instrument's modern and cutting character. The Grover® Rotomatic® locking tuners, Graph Tech® nut, and LockTone™ Modern bridge combine their strengths to deliver remarkable tuning stability and consistent performance. Inspired by the Frequensator, the through-body bridge design optimizes string tension balance, for well-defined lows, expressive highs, excellent sustain, and effortless bends.
The Prophecy Flying V's sonic versatility is based on Fishman® Fluence® pickups with custom voice, developed specifically for the Prophecy range. This advanced electronics offers three distinct sonic voices via intuitive push/pull master volume and tone controls:
Modern active Humbucker™ tones with high output
Humbucker character inspired by vintage PAF pickups
Optimized clarity inspired by a single-coil pickup
This wide sonic palette allows the Prophecy Flying V to excel in modern styles with high levels of saturation, while maintaining the versatility needed in the studio, at rehearsals, and on stage.
The Prophecy Flying V delivers precise and punchy lows, well-defined mids, exceptional articulation, and remarkable consistency under the most demanding conditions. Every feature has been designed to meet the expectations of guitarists seeking uncompromising performance.
When speed, comfort, and consistency are non-negotiable, the Epiphone Prophecy is the obvious choice. The Prophecy Flying Vest comes with a Protector Ultralite case, ideal for easy transport and secure storage. Order yours today and discover the future of modern guitar performance.
