A Prophecy Collection SG!
The Epiphone Prophecy SG Custom GX is a powerful-looking guitar with its highly figured quilted mahogany top set against eye-catching gold precision tuners. Joining Epiphone's innovative Prophecy Collection, you can expect a series of design enhancements that make this Epiphone Prophecy SG Custom GX a significant buy for its modest price - such enhancements include Gibson's aggressive, extreme-output "Dirty Fingers" pickups, a LockTone Tune-o-Matic bridge for even greater sustain, and a slim-profiled, SpeedTaper neck complete with a satin finish for incredible, smooth playability. You'll create a wide variety of tones with this stylish, and versatile Epiphone Prophecy SG Custom GX.

A Member of Epiphone's Prophecy Collection
Epiphone's Prophecy Collection Guitars might look familiar at first glance - indeed, they do feature such legendary body styles as the Les Paul and SG. Yet, these instruments boast innovative new components that set them apart from any Epiphone you've ever seen. First, depending on the model, they feature either EMG active, EpiActive, Gibson USA, or original Floyd Rose Tremolo-equipped pickups. Second, they each claim highly figured quilt Maple tops that give them the look and presence of other guitars well beyond this affordable price range. And as for the necks, they're what Epiphone calls SpeedTaper satin, complete with "blade" inlays across the 24 jumbo frets that almost invite your hand to glide across them. Plus, because these are Epiphone "Customs," their bodies and necks are all bound - an additional benefit at this modest price. And, finally, quality finishing touches include Epiphone's new Straplock system for worry-free playing, precision tuners, and, most noticeably, their gorgeous hand-stained colors.

SG Style
In the late '50s, Gibson introduced the SG series of solid body guitars, and they have been mainstays of rock 'n' rollers ever since because of their excellent sustain and tone. This particular Epiphone SG Custom GX stands out in the crowd with its stunning quilt maple top and gold hardware.

Gibson USA Dirty Fingers Pickups
These extreme-output "Dirty Fingers" humbuckers really deliver some attitude. Dubbed as being the "critical union between power and dirt," Epiphone actually takes it one step further by adding a push/pull coil-tapping control that allows for single-coil isolation of each pickup. The end result is an ultra-versatile instrument, capable of producing an amazing array of tones.
