Epiphone Prophecy SG Obsidian Storm Satin — Modern Speed, Classic SG Feel

The Epiphone Prophecy SG Obsidian Storm Satin takes the familiar SG platform and rebuilds it around modern speed, comfort, and tonal flexibility. Its mahogany SG Modern body is topped with maple and a highly figured flamed maple veneer, while the Obsidian Storm Satin finish and black hardware give it an especially restrained, aggressive look. Built for players working in heavier styles, it combines a longer 25.5" scale, fast neck geometry, stainless steel frets, and multi-voice Fishman Fluence electronics in a guitar that still keeps the lightweight feel and upper-fret access players expect from an SG. The thermally aged one-piece maple neck is reinforced with graphite rods and shaped to Epiphone's HyperGlide profile for a fast, stable feel. A bound ebony fingerboard with a 10" to 14" compound radius and 24 stainless steel frets provides a smooth, durable playing surface for rhythm and lead work, while the extended 25.5" scale adds useful tension and clarity for lower tunings.

What Sets the Prophecy SG Apart

Custom-voiced Fishman Fluence pickups supply three distinct tonal voices through push/pull master volume and tone controls, including high-output modern active humbucker tones, vintage-inspired Patent Applied For-style humbucker character, and clear single-coil-style articulation. The thermally aged one-piece maple neck with graphite reinforcement and HyperGlide profile is a rare combination in this price tier, paired with stainless steel frets that hold their crown under heavy playing. Black mother-of-pearl block inlays and a multi-ply bound Custom-style headstock keep the overall presentation clean and modern.

Body Construction — Lightweight Mahogany With a Figured Maple Top

The SG Modern body shape preserves the upper-fret access and balanced weight that have defined the SG since the early 1960s, while the satin finish and black hardware give this version a stage-ready, understated look. A figured flame maple veneer over a maple cap adds visual depth without significantly changing the body's tonal character.

• Body Material: Mahogany — the SG's classic tonewood, light in the hand and rich in midrange
• Top Material: Maple with Highly Figured Flamed Maple Veneer — adds visual depth and a touch of brightness to the mahogany core
• Body Shape: SG Modern — double-cutaway design with deep upper-fret access
• Finish: Satin (Obsidian Storm) — a smooth, low-friction surface that feels fast against the forearm

Neck & Fingerboard — Speed Built Into the Profile

A thermally aged one-piece maple neck with graphite rod reinforcement resists warping under string tension and climate changes, while the HyperGlide profile keeps the neck slim and fast across all 24 frets. The bound ebony fingerboard with a 10" to 14" compound radius flattens out toward the higher frets, making string bends and lead work easier without choking out rhythm chord voicings.

• Neck Material: Thermally Aged One-Piece Maple — treated to improve stability and give the feel of a well-played vintage neck
• Neck Construction: Glued-In Set Neck with Graphite Reinforcement — traditional join for sustain, with graphite rods for stability
• Neck Profile: HyperGlide — slim, fast shape suited to lead and rhythm playing
• Scale Length: 648 mm (25.5") — adds tension and clarity, especially useful for dropped tunings
• Fingerboard Material: Ebony — dense, smooth, and bright under the fingers
• Fingerboard Radius: 254 mm to 356 mm (10" to 14") Compound — rounder for chords, flatter for bends
• Frets: 24 Stainless Steel — durable, corrosion-resistant, and ideal for aggressive playing

Electronics & Hardware — Fishman Fluence and Locking Stability

Custom-voiced Fishman Fluence humbuckers deliver three distinct tonal voices through push/pull master volume and tone controls, giving players access to modern active, vintage PAF-inspired, and single-coil-style sounds without swapping guitars. Locking Grover Rotomatic tuners, a Graph Tech nut, and the LockTone Modern bridge with string-through tailpiece keep tuning stable through heavy use and aggressive bending.

• Pickup Configuration: HH (Custom-Voiced Fishman Fluence) — three voices per pickup via push/pull controls
• Controls: 1 Volume, 1 Tone with Push/Pull Functions, 3-Way Toggle — full pickup selection plus voice switching
• Bridge: LockTone Modern — solid anchor for tuning stability and sustain
• Tailpiece: String-Through — direct string-to-body coupling for improved resonance
• Tuning Machines: Grover Rotomatic Locking — fast string changes and reliable tuning
• Nut: Graph Tech — self-lubricating for stable tuning and reduced friction
• Hardware Finish: Black — matches the Obsidian Storm Satin aesthetic
• Case: Protector Ultralite Case (included) — lightweight protection for transport and storage

Who the Prophecy SG Obsidian Storm Satin Is Built For

The Prophecy SG Obsidian Storm Satin is the right choice for guitarists who want the upper-fret access and lightweight feel of an SG with modern active electronics and a fast, stable neck. Players working in heavier styles — metal, hard rock, progressive, djent, and modern fusion — will appreciate the Fishman Fluence's high-output modern voice, while the vintage PAF-inspired and single-coil-style voices give the guitar useful range for cleaner passages and studio work. The 25.5" scale and stainless steel frets also make it a strong option for players who use dropped tunings and want a guitar that stays in tune under heavy picking and bending. The included Protector Ultralite case makes it easy to take this instrument to rehearsals, gigs, and sessions without adding bulk to the load.
