The Epiphone Extura Prophecy Yellow Tiger Aged Gloss model stands out with its bold design, inspired by both the Gibson Explorer and the Futura. Its mahogany construction, with a AAA flamed maple top, offers exceptional resonance and extended sustain, ideal for intense solos. Thanks to a Graph Tech NuBone nut, this guitar ensures remarkable tuning stability, essential for performances on stage or in the studio.

Equipped with 2 Fishman Fluence pickups, it allows guitarists to navigate between 3 distinct voices, going from the warm sound of a vintage humbucker to modern and cutting tones. The push/pull system integrated into the volume and tone controls adds additional flexibility, allowing the pickups to be split for single-coil sounds, perfect for finer sonic nuances and varied atmospheres.

The asymmetrical SlimTaper neck, with its sculpted heel, gives this Epiphone guitar exceptional playability, facilitating access to the highest notes. The jumbo frets on the ebony fingerboard provide undeniable playing comfort, especially for those who like to play quickly or perform precise bends. This model is designed for musicians who are looking for an instrument that is both aesthetic and powerful.

The active electronics, powered by a 9V battery, guarantee consistent performance, whether on stage or in the studio. With the Tune-O-Matic LockTone bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, this Epiphone Prophecy ensures extended sustain and perfect intonation, even after hours of intensive playing.
