Epiphone's classic guitar designs take a bold new direction in the redesigned Prophecy series, combining fast-playing necks, performance-focused construction and custom-voiced Fishman Fluence pickups for modern players. The Epiphone Prophecy Les Paul electric guitar combines an Ultra Modern weight-relieved mahogany body, a maple cap and figured flame maple veneer with a thermally aged maple neck, ebony fingerboard and 25.5" scale. Custom-voiced Fishman Fluence humbuckers offer modern active, vintage-inspired and single-coil-style voices, while 24 stainless steel frets, a 10"-14" compound radius and a LockTone Modern bridge and string-through-body design complete the performance-focused setup. For guitarists who want familiar Les Paul styling with faster neck geometry and expanded pickup options, the Prophecy Les Paul suits demanding rehearsals, recording and live sets.
Les Paul Construction With Modern Contoured Comfort
The Prophecy Les Paul starts with a mahogany single-cut body, maple cap and figured flame maple veneer beneath a satin finish. Ultra Modern weight relief reduces body mass, while the Modern Contoured Heel improves access to the upper frets and a rear belly carve brings the guitar closer to the player. These refinements retain the familiar Les Paul design while making its body construction more accommodating to extended rehearsals and demanding stage work.
Three Fishman Fluence Voices for Musical Flexibility
Custom-voiced Fishman Fluence pickups, developed for the Prophecy series, supply three distinct tonal characters: modern high-output active humbucker, vintage PAF-inspired humbucker and clear single-coil-style sounds. Two volume controls handle coil splitting, while two tone controls select pickup voicings; a three-way toggle chooses the pickup combination. This range gives the guitar useful options for high-gain riffs, articulate clean parts and layered recording.
Thermally Aged Maple Neck and Compound-Radius Ebony
A satin-finished, thermally aged one-piece maple neck features graphite rod reinforcement and a streamlined HyperGlide profile for fluid fretting. The 25.5" scale supports a firmer string feel for lower tunings, while the HyperGlide neck profile keeps fretting comfortable and fluid. A bound ebony fingerboard with a 10"-14" compound radius and 24 stainless steel frets provides a smooth playing surface for chord work and upper-register runs.
Modern Hardware and Distinctive Prophecy Appointments
A LockTone Modern bridge, string-through-body tailpiece and locking Grover Rotomatic tuners provide a dependable foundation for tuning and sustain. Black hardware and knurled control knobs complete the modern appearance. Black mother-of-pearl block inlays and a bound headstock with Custom split-diamond detailing add a refined visual finish.
A Versatile Guitar Ready for the Stage
The Prophecy Les Paul brings a familiar single-cut shape into a modern playing environment with Ultra Modern weight relief, a contoured heel and three Fluence pickup voices. Its fast neck and fixed-bridge hardware support the transition from tight rhythm passages to fluid leads, while the carved body details improve comfort during longer sessions. A Protector Ultralite case is included for transport and storage. Choose the Epiphone Prophecy Les Paul electric guitar for classic styling with modern performance flexibility.
