The newly redesigned Epiphone Prophecy range combines the classic design and look of Gibson most iconic electric guitars, but adds a host of modern features to make them much more tonally versatile, whilst maintaining the vibe and style of the guitars that inspired them.
This guitar features the classic Gibson SG design with a Mahogany body and a 1/2 inch maple cap. The Mahogany neck features a modern Asymmetrical SlimTaper profile to improve playability. Other more modern features include a 24 fret Ebony fingerboard with a Graph Tech NuBone nut, a set of Grover locking rotomatic tuners, and most importantly a set of Fishman Fluence Pickups with an incredibly versatile switching circuit, offering modern high gain, vintage hum bucker and even noiseless single coil options.
So take a quick look and listen with Dagan and PMTVUK, and try one out for yourself at your nearest Professional Music Technology store...

Man epiphone are absolutely slaying this year
I had never seen the Prophecy series until shopping for a new guitar last week... OMG!! I tried over 20 guitars that weekend trying to find what I wanted. Even after playing $1,800 Gibsons/Fenders, The Prophecy SG won me over. I love its versatility and sweet playability.
I’m not usually an explorer fan but that purple burst makes it pretty sweet
All it needs is a middle pickup, a floyd and it's a perfect explorer
Very awesome! 🤘🎸🤘
If they did the LP or the SG in that purple finish, I'd be such a happy boy.
@@fundude365 ikr I feel like I have to buy that extura just for the purple finish 😆
@@BlueprintsForHeadaches After a year of pining, I dropped the money on the LP in Red :)
I tried that SG in the store. First take was that it was beautiful and modern. The inlays, finish and pickup screamed modern. It was nice playing, and nice sounding. Epiphone is really taking their level up a notch. Awesome guitar!
“There’s all this room (on the upper fb) for ‘activities’” - I love that line! 👍
Always have been an Explorer fan and FINALLY an explorer w binding, block inlays AND serious pickups. Thank you Epiphone!
Just bought this guitar today! Been playing all day! Its a beautiful beautiful guitar! So far I'm over the moon with my purchase!
Love this guy! Pure joy when he plays.
Damnit Dagan, you just sold me on the sg special. Now I want this
I'll never be in the UK guitar shopping but I love your reviews! Keep on rocking Dagan!
*Love your demos! ☠️🏆 This guitar sounds very good and versatile!*
Thanks, I really dug your review
Fluence pick ups are brilliant. I have them on my BC Rich and my Jackson Soloist! I think I need an SG...
Love the inlays!
I may have to treat myself for Christmas (as it's also my birthday...) thanks for inspiring me to get my wallet out!!!
Love that Explorer
I just got a red one today. Absolutely killer.
Sg's rule. Epiphone are really kicking it up a notch across the board
Just bought the SG!!
It will be here Saturday ; )
Nice taping my guy 🤘
Just ordered mine in all black can’t wait to get it
How is it?
Just got the Blue Tiger SG- thanks stimulus checK!
SG QUEEN
I wanna get one as well
I literally bought this guitar yesterday. I'm so happy
Still happy?
@@officialgamerz29yeeeep
Does it have that signature SG sound though? Cause out of this video can’t tell
@@user-bb7te4yo3y first SG i ever owned. I only had a Les Paul and a Taylor acoustic prior
@@FoxtaleHi how is it holding up? Still happy with it? Thanks for the feedback
The les paul is my favourite. I wish it had a blue and purple finish
I'm going to swap out my current SG Special 2004 for my grail of the Standard '61
I like them all, but Im sold on that SG.
Oh god I want this guitar
I love sg
They all look amazing..but I am drawn more to the SG
me too since i already have an eclipse which is sleeker than the les paul but the viper isn't as sleek as the sg
Damn if I hadn't just bought a 335 I'd of got one sounds and looks sooooooo nice
Cool they brought back the series/Those pickups are sick n I like they went 24 frets but don't care for single tone n volume set up...
You'll have to get the les paul then! That's the one I have my eye on at the mo.
Ordered this blue Prophecy SG in December, 2020 from Sweetwater (US). Covid pandemic, worker and supply shortages, transportation issues etc. led to months and months of waiting - then an email...just yesterday...that ----can it be?? Yes - yes It shipped and will arrive tomorrow Saturday, October 30, 2021. Oh boy, oh boy oh boy!!! Long wait can't wait! 10 months but Life is good!
Dude same here, I just ordered my today cause I saw they had it back in stock, I bought it instantly, I'm so excited for it!
I have several Epiphones ,,,SG Pro and an SG Bass EB-3,,and a 12 string DR series,,,all sound great,,,the 12 string is low priced and the sound is beautiful,,,the SG is a fretless wonder,,,,you can go wrong with their quality either,,imho,,
Epicphone!!!!
Sweet
How is the neck dive?
Love these prophecy guitars. I am NOT a fan of the inlays (I actually prefer no inlays..so), they are kinda gawdy imo. The blue and green aren't TOO bad, but the Extura ones...eek.
I guess PMT didn't get the Adam Jones 79 Les Paul. 10k is ridiculous.
Does it have neck dive like older Epiphone SG's?
How neckheavy is it?
The tail piece still remains too close to the bridge humbucker and it's not recessed. The balancing issues of the SG ......light body vs heavy neck.......are they solved?
Enjoying your energy. These keyboard warriors will never understand
Does this guitar work with the Boss Katana Air transmitter? Thanks!
I spy a '61 or '62 Custom on the wall!
Nice video...good job!
No offense, but no matter how much Gibson changes the headstock on the Epiphone guitars, I still don't like the way they look. Hey Gibson, take the P.R.S. example...they started putting the signature of PAUL REED SMITH (PRS logo) on all the SE headstocks and their sales soared (found out through a dealer). Now all the PRS line looks classy...I am not even a PRS fan and I bought one (P.R.S. Hollow body).
A few positive things I can say about THIS guitar is that the pickups are sounding a whole lot better for stock pups. I also like that the guitar has locking tuners, nice inlay and triple A maple cap in a three color choice...nice!
However, I have been playing on stage for over 30 years and have used either a strat that I have completely upgraded or a less paul with upgraded pups (I like to do my own builds) and I would never use an Epiphone with this headstock on stage...I might use it at home just to goof around with. Again, I don't mean to offend anyone, but to me the headstocks just look funky and not in a good way.
I preface that to say this...to those who like Epiphone guitars, this one in particular seems like the best of the bunch and I say go for it...enjoy. Peace.
I would totally get that Flying V and learn some old school Metallica songs on it
Or I would get the LP.
Were you thinking Horsemen or Seek and Destroy?
@@scrimpmsterIf I had to choose one, Seek and Destroy. But I would deffinitely learn both
Get em all!!
I love this guy! So the active pickups aren't like EMG's but does it still work without a battery?
No, you need a battery for the guitar to work.
@@launches.loops.and.lapbars thanks
@@Philminator The Fishman Fluences still sound great though! I was at Andertons the other week and played one of these, it was like nothing else! They really can handle anything.
tempted to sell my sg modern towards one of these babies....
As long as it’s not your first
@@nygiants440 nope. still have my first dean bent neck and all
@@sawbonesquad4876 yeah glad you keep it
I'm fascinated by these things but I don't get the aged gloss look. Why have flamed maple if you're going to bury it under haze? Otherwise yeah, those pickups are game-changers.
PS: Might sound dumb but can we install a pickguard on it ?
An SG with 24 frets that doesn't bust the bank. (cough) Tony Iommi (cough.)
What do you play at 7:45 mins?
Stainless steel frets?
Does it have neck dive?
I own an SG like that, but it sounds nothing like this one... mine makes weird noises, like a cat being strangled.
like stranglehold? or cat scratch fever?
When i tried one i hated it. The neck was extremely flat and it had a neck dive thats horrible even for an SG. I played it for 15 minutes and streched in the strings because it didnt stay in tune and i thought that it was maybe caused by new strings. It helped a litle bit but the h (or b) string and g string werent having any of it. The pickups sounded good and gave a more modern type of sound but that was about it. This might have just been a realy bad example because i hear everyone says they love the prophecy models.
You did your job Sir I laid 500 bucks on one today. I should have it in about 2 weeks of successful gambling 🎰. 🎸🔥
Are they made with whammy bar ?
Bought this SG. The QC at Epiphone seems to be lacking. The nut was off to one side about 1 mm. 13th fret was high and had to be trimmed down by pro. Otherwise a great sounding instrument.
frankly i don't care about the sound over quality since it can be corrected with amplification and recording software
Only available in UK?
And USA
Does the extra hog body weight help save it from dreaded SG neck dive?
I'm hoping so! I usually steer clear of SG's for that reason but, lo, I have one on order! We'll see!!
@@SheepDog1513 So, does it neck dives? haha I have a Gibson SG Special that perfectly balanced and I want to buy this new one, but I'm worried about the neck diving!
what model is the white sg with three pickups?
That's one of Dagan's personal SG Customs.
I saw the price tag and had to double take. However after seeing all these features, I can see why it costs so much.
Ah, yes, my favorite colors.
Blue Tiger Aged Gloss
Red Tiger Gloss
Black
Lock in Tuners and 24 frets for half of the budget of a Gibson Standard...
Mod'n????
China or Korea made? Thanks
China
SG or LP? 🤔. . . 😐
This guys a rockstar in his own mind .
It a poor man's Gibson
I tried the sg model at guitar center. It sounded really great... but was the most unbalanced guitar I've ever played. It was oddly so neck heavy that when it's on your lap it falls down forward hard. Deal breaker for me. Can't believe a company as big as epiphone can't make a balanced guitar at this price point...kind of rediculous. Maybe better luck with the single cut. Again the guitar did sound quite good.
It is a problem all SGs have, Gibson's too. It's due to the design.
I like the neck heavy.
@@wayzUX each to their own... but 99 percent of people out there will want a balanced guitar...
Wait, wait, wait! Wait!
Dagan held an SG for an entire video and played zero AC/DC?! Something is deeply wrong.
Please please please stop waiving your arms around.
No
How is the neck dive?
Does this guitar work with the Boss Katana Air transmitter? Thanks!
Doesn't
