The Epiphone Flying V Prophecy electric guitar takes a rare Gibson classic and reinvents it for modern players seeking to break tradition and push the boundaries of speed, sound and technique. At the heart of this ax are a pair of custom-voiced Fishman Fluence humbucking pickups that unlock three distinct tones at the turn of a knob —a warm, vintage-inspired humbucker, a hot, high-output humbucker and a shimmering, hum-free single-coil. Swapping between tones is as simple as using the push-pull Volume and Tone pots.

Iconic Retro-Futuristic Body Shape with Modern Playability

The Epiphone Flying V Prophecy boasts the iconic V-shaped body that turns heads on any stage. Its resonant mahogany body is topped by an eye-catching AAA flame maple veneer and dressed in a sharp aged gloss finish. An asymmetrical SlimTaper mahogany neck offers a slim, fast-playing profile, while the 12" radius ebony fingerboard hosts 24 jumbo frets for silky string bends and wide vibrato. A contoured heel provides effortless access to the upper frets.

Rock-Solid Components Keep You in Tune

Grover locking Rotomatic tuners supply precision tuning and lightning-fast string changes. Epiphone's LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece work in harmony to provide exceptional sustain and tonal clarity. A Graph Tech NuBone nut boosts harmonic content and tuning stability.

Modern Pickups Unlock a Spectrum of Tones

The Epiphone Flying V Prophecy is equipped with a pair of Fishman Fluence humbucking pickups that provide three distinct tones. Roll back the Volume knob for a warm, vintage PAF-style humbucker tone; push it forward for a hot, high-output humbucker tone with loads of harmonic richness and sustain; pull it up for a crisp, articulate single-coil tone. A 3-way pickup selector lets you access each pickup individually or combine them.
