Epiphone - Prophecy Flying V Obsidian Storm Satin
Epiphone Prophecy Flying V Obsidian Storm Satin The Epiphone Prophecy Flying V Obsidian Storm Satin is a mahogany electric guitar designed for dropped tunings and high gain. Its three-way Fishman Fluence pickups offer a precise tonal range, whilst the kiln-dried maple neck and LockTone Modern bridge enhance stability, comfort and playability.
Presentation
The solid mahogany body provides a solid foundation, finished with a flamed maple veneer, multi-ply binding and a satin finish. The one-piece, kiln-dried solid maple neck promotes direct signal transmission. Its HyperGlide profile and ebony fingerboard follow the hand’s contours over a compound radius of 10" to 14". The 24 stainless steel frets facilitate bends. Black mother-of-pearl inlays mark the fingerboard. The graphite truss rod stabilises the neck. The neck features a satin finish.
The one-piece Flying V headstock features a multi-ply design, the Epiphone logo and a Custom Split Diamond inlay. A Graph Tech nut and Grover Rotomatic locking tuners minimise tuning drift whilst playing. The LockTone Modern bridge and the string-through-body tailpiece transmit the energy of the strings. The black nickel hardware and knurled knobs complete the package. The Protector Ultralite case accompanies this Flying V for studio, stage, rehearsal and dropped tunings.
