Epiphone Prophecy Flying V - Obsidian Storm Satin

The Epiphone Prophecy series has been thoroughly re-envisioned for players who demand uncompromising speed, precision, and tonal authority. More than a refinement, it represents a complete redesign from the ground up. Created for today’s serious musicians, the latest Prophecy lineup unites Epiphone’s iconic heritage with forward-looking performance innovation, resulting in finely crafted instruments that are bold, responsive, and built for modern playing styles.

The new Prophecy Flying V™ fully embodies this vision. It features a satin-finished mahogany Flying V body, topped with a highly figured flamed maple veneer and accented with multi-ply binding, blending classic attitude with contemporary refinement. Its satin-finished, thermally aged one-piece maple neck offers a smooth, fast feel, while graphite rod reinforcement enhances structural stability and long-term durability. The streamlined Hyperglide neck profile supports quick, fluid playing, and the extended 25.5” scale length increases string tension and clarity, making it ideal for modern tunings and drop-tuned performance.

The bound ebony fretboard carries a 10”-14” compound radius and is outfitted with 24 stainless steel frets, providing a fast, durable, and precision-focused playing surface. Black mother-of-pearl block inlays contribute to its sleek, understated aesthetic, while the multi-ply-bound Flying V headstock, featuring the Epiphone logo and Custom split diamond inlay, delivers a distinctly premium look.

Black nickel hardware reinforces the guitar’s modern, aggressive aesthetic. Locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners, a Graph Tech® nut, and a LockTone™ Modern bridge combine to ensure exceptional tuning stability and reliable performance. The through-body tailpiece, influenced by the Frequensator design, optimizes string tension balance, delivering tight lows, expressive highs, strong sustain, and effortless bending.

With a tight and controlled low end, focused midrange, and exceptional clarity, the Prophecy Flying V delivers consistent, articulate performance, even under demanding conditions. Every detail is engineered for players who expect uncompromising results. When speed, comfort, and reliability matter most, the Epiphone Prophecy Flying V delivers. Supplied with a Protector Ultralite case for convenient transport and protection, it represents a bold step forward in Epiphone’s vision for the future of high-performance guitar design
