At its core, the Futura SG Custom retains its solid, compact mahogany body, poised with its aggressive early-’60s beveled contouring and those iconic mini-horn cutaways. But the history ends there! Dutifully evolved for speed and comfort, the Futura SG Custom adds a Modern C-shaped mahogany neck with a 10-inch to 14-inch compound-radius ebony fretboard into the equation. Furthermore, a range of modern appointments aid tuning stability and playability, including stainless steel frets, Posi-Lok strap buttons, locking Grover Rotomatic tuners, and a LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge and Stopbar tailpiece. A set of ProBucker Ignite humbucking pickups provides high-output clarity and heat, with push-pull controls for coil splitting and phase switching to help easily shape your tone. Combining vintage design and modern edge, Epiphone’s Futura SG Custom embarks upon a truly innovative endeavor in sight and sound.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEpiphone Futura: the future is now\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ehe Epiphone Futura series arrives freshly pulled from the depths of time — an iridescent iteration of legendary Gibson-inspired body styles, including the SG, Explorer, Flying V, ES-355, Les Paul, Firebird, and RD Custom.

These Inspired by Gibson models deliver tone and style that’s perfect for gigging, recording, or content creation in the modern era. With bold, color-shifting finishes, all-new pickups, and versatile electronic features like coil splitting and phase switching, they have the look and sound that today’s players need to stand out from the crowd and make their own statement, both sonically and visually. Other high-performance features, including stainless steel frets, compound-radius fretboards, and ultra-comfortable neck profiles, make the Futura Series guitars truly innovative and a must-have addition for any guitar collection. The Gibson SG™ has long been Gibson’s most popular solidbody electric guitar model. It was initially released as a reimagined Les Paul™ and later renamed the SG (which stands for Solid Guitar). Epiphone is excited to introduce the new Futura SG Custom, a modern take on a design that still looks sleek, modern, and slightly menacing over 60 years after Gibson first introduced it in 1961. The double-cutaway mahogany body features classic SG sculpted edges that not only look great but also make it very comfortable to hold and play. It is equipped with a LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and a LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece for outstanding intonation and sustain, and Posi-Lok™ strap buttons to keep your strap securely attached without extra hardware. The glued-in mahogany neck features an ultra-comfortable, fast-playing Modern C profile and is topped with a bound ebony fretboard with 22 stainless steel medium jumbo frets and classic Super 400-style pearloid split-block inlays. The fretboard also features a 10”-14” compound radius, making chording and string bends smooth and effortless. The bound Kalamazoo headstock is equipped with locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with kidney buttons, a Graph Tech® nut, and the Custom split diamond and Epiphone logo, both inlaid in mother-of-pearl. Powering the Futura SG Custom are a pair of Epiphone’s new ProBucker™ Ignite humbucker™ pickups that can drive your amp hard when you want to, while retaining clarity. Push\/pull volume and tone controls provide coil-splitting and phase options for even more tonal variety. The Futura SG Custom is available in two eye-popping Chromashift color-shifting finishes: Nitro Shift and Midnight Ember Shift, each designed to stand out on camera or on any stage. Whether you’re looking for an instrument with a modern aesthetic or a versatile instrument with plenty of sonic options, the Futura SG Custom is an ideal choice.
