Description
The Epiphone Prophecy SG in Obsidian Storm Satin takes the familiar SG platform and rebuilds it around modern speed, comfort, and tonal flexibility. Its mahogany SG Modern body is topped with maple and a highly figured flamed maple veneer, while the Obsidian Storm Satin finish and black hardware give it an especially restrained, aggressive look. Built for players working in heavier styles, it combines a longer 25.5" scale, fast neck geometry, stainless steel frets, and multi-voice Fishman Fluence electronics in a guitar that still keeps the lightweight feel and upper-fret access players expect from an SG.
The thermally aged one-piece maple neck is reinforced with graphite rods and shaped to Epiphone's HyperGlide profile for a fast, stable feel. A bound ebony fingerboard with a 10" to 14" compound radius and 24 stainless steel frets provides a smooth, durable playing surface for rhythm and lead work, while the extended 25.5" scale adds useful tension and clarity for lower tunings. Black mother-of-pearl block inlays and the multi-ply bound Custom-style headstock keep the overall presentation clean and modern.
Custom-voiced Fishman Fluence pickups provide three distinct tonal voices through push/pull master volume and tone controls, including high-output modern active humbucker tones, vintage-inspired Patent Applied For-style humbucker character, and clear single-coil-style articulation. Locking Grover Rotomatic tuners, a Graph Tech nut, LockTone Modern bridge, and string-through tailpiece provide dependable tuning stability and sustain for demanding stage and studio use. We think the Obsidian Storm Satin version is a great fit for players who want the familiar balance and upper-fret access of an SG with modern electronics and hardware built for heavier playing.
