General

While it's still a loving ode to the Gibson original, the Epiphone Les Paul Prophecy comes dripping with a character all of its own making. This upstart of a single-cut guitar comes loaded with ultra-modern tweaks and fully primed for heavy work. The most striking update is the pair of active Fishman Fluence humbuckers. These don't just deliver high-gain humbucker sound, but by toggling the push-pull tone pot, you're essentially engaging the full and mighty tone of a vintage PAF-style pickup, then, by popping the volume pots, you split both humbuckers for a hum-free single-coil sound. The versatility of the electronics section of the Prophecy is actually nothing short of astounding.

The Les Paul Prophecy: Asymmetrical SlimTaper & Ultra Modern Weight Relief

Epiphone has also been careful to hone the fast feel of the Prophecy by finishing the neck with a super-comfortable asymmetrical Slimtaper profile that was actually first developed by Gibson guitar builders at the end of the '50s but, has been popping up on more and more contemporary solid-body models. This is fully supported by the rounded heel which gives smooth access to the highest frets. Beneath the AAA-grade flamed maple top, lies a mahogany body that's undergone the weight-relief treatment, where strategic holes have been drilled to bring the weight down for improved manageability.

LockTone Hardware, Grover Locking Rotomatic Tuners & Graph Tech NuBone Nut

When it comes to hardware, nothing has been left to chance. So, you get the assurance of a Tune-O-Matic bridge and a timeless LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece that will stay securely fixed in place when re-stringing. A set of Grover Locking Rotomatic machine heads has been fitted so you can simply lock in your strings without needing to spend any precious time winding. Every piece of hardware has also has been treated to the fresh and contemporary look of brushed nickel and, combined with the Graph Tech NuBone nut, the intonation is pure and the tuning is as stable as it gets.

Epiphone Les Paul Prophecy Red Tiger Aged Gloss Electric Guitar
Wrote the following about Epiphone Les Paul Prophecy Red Tiger Aged Gloss Electric Guitar
Deze gitaar een week geleden aangeschaft en ik ben er zo ver ontzettend blij mee! Er komt een goed geluid uit, hij speelt fantastisch en ziet er ook nog eens mooi uit. Een van de enige nadelen is dat de brug niet helemaal goed afgesteld was na aanschaffing, dit is zelf makkelijk op te lossen met een schroevendraaier. Ook de locking tuners waren niet gebruikt zoals ze bedoeld zijn, de snaar zat om het pinnetje heen gebonden terwijl dit systeem er juist voor zorgt dat dit niet hoeft. Dit zijn allebei problemen die zelf makkelijk op te lossen zijn en en dus zeker geen dealbreaker. De brug zit wat verder op de gitaar vergeleken met andere Les Paul modellen, dit is vooral even wennen. Over het algemeen is deze gitaar het voor mij helemaal waard.
