Epiphone - Prophecy Victory FR Obsidian Storm Satin

A crisp, compact burst of energy erupts from every chord played on the Epiphone Prophecy Victory FR Obsidian Storm Satin. The mahogany body, topped with a flamed maple veneer, imbues every note with a woody texture. The Fishman Fluence pickups with black covers, fitted at the neck and bridge positions, offer three voicings activated by push/pull volume and tone controls, ranging from a modern active humbucker to a ‘Patent Applied For’-style tone and a single-coil texture.

The Victory shape, inspired by the brand’s logo, combines a solid mahogany body – including the back and sides – with a flamed maple top edged with multi-ply binding. The glued-in, one-piece thermally aged maple neck, with a satin finish, features a HyperGlide profile and graphite reinforcements that stabilise the wood against climatic variations. The ebony fingerboard, with a compound radius of 10 to 14 inches, fitted with 24 stainless steel frets and black mother-of-pearl inlays, glides smoothly under the fingers all the way to the 43 mm Floyd Rose R3 nut.

The Floyd Rose 1000 Series vibrato and Grover Rotomatic locking tuners keep the tuning stable during the most intense passages, supported by an Explorer-style headstock edged with multilayer binding and finished in black nickel, complete with a mother-of-pearl Epiphone logo. A three-position selector switch, complemented by knurled knobs, switches between the three Fluence voicings – from distorted riffs to melodic solos – whilst the Protector Ultralite case accompanies the instrument both on stage and in the studio.
