Description
The Epiphone Futura Explorer Custom in Dragonfly Shift is built for players who want the unmistakable Explorer attitude paired with modern performance features and a finish that stands out under stage lights. If you are into aggressive shapes, fast necks, and versatile electronics that can handle everything from heavy riffs to articulate cleans, this one checks a lot of boxes. The Dragonfly Shift Chromashift finish shifts color as it catches the light, giving the guitar a look that is hard to miss.
The solid mahogany Explorer body delivers strong sustain and punch, while the multi-ply top and back binding adds a refined touch to the angular design. A glued-in mahogany neck with a Modern C profile keeps the feel comfortable and responsive. The bound ebony fingerboard features a 10 to 14 inch compound radius and 22 stainless steel frets, making both rhythm playing and fast lead work feel smooth and controlled. Eye-catching split-block inlays give it a classic high-end look while maintaining the modern theme.
Epiphone ProBucker Ignite humbuckers provide powerful output with clarity and definition. The push pull control adds coil-splitting and phase options, giving you a wide range of usable tones beyond standard humbucker sounds. LockTone Tune-O-Matic and Stop Bar hardware help maintain solid sustain and tuning stability, while locking Grover Rotomatic tuners keep everything secure. We like this model because it takes the bold Explorer platform and updates it with modern features that make it equally comfortable on stage, in the studio, or creating content.
