Epiphone’s Long-Awaited Prophecy Guitars are Back & Better than Ever!

[@rexsolomon6325]

The intro is exactly what ONLY Andertons can do: Remind guitarists everywhere HOW FUN it is to play with your guitar buddies - Silly smiles and spontaneous laughter - Pushing your friends to try and out-shred you - Fantastic unrehearsed music!!! When Danish Pete and Rabea exchange licks - Magic always happens!

[@aumenarys]

You should do another youtube channel called "Andertons Music Intro Jams" and put all the jams there, I would listen to them as normal music, and I'm sure others would too.

[@andertons]

We don't have another channel but we do have a playlist for them... 😉 kzbin.info/aero/PLQXro2VDjyIw9qs4pQ2awTBHQ1RkBHRmQ

okay so the opening jam has me sold already god damn and I've gotta say, Epiphone is becoming so compelling as a brand I honestly don't see myself buying a Gibson considering what Epiphone has to offer for the price.

[@aldersmoke1]

These guitars are punching way above their weight. Good on Epi for being the first brand to take the Fluence plunge. I'm a metal guy, yeah, but that single coil bridge setting is SRV for days. This line is aimed at metal players, but frankly, metal is the easiest tone to dial in; everything else these can do is what sells me.

[@unfiltered577]

[@BizarrePudding]

Having bought a new Epiphone this year (2020 LP Special) I'd say that it's a big bonus that they went with something other than Epi p/ups here....If you ignore the ridiculous amount of "out of the box" high frets that I had to pay to have leveled, the only major complaint I had with the guitar were the EPI P-90s...They were okay, but after 3 months of playing them I had them switched out for Gibson P-90s and the change was dramatic...(When I went to pick up the guitar the tech who did the work said "Man I forgot how good Gibson pickups were...this thing sounds great"...) The other thing to check is whether there's a gig bag included - probably not...Not the biggest deal but potentially another expense on top of the price of the instrument...Still, given that you probably won't feel compelled to buy, and pay to install, different p/ups is a huge plus, imo... And P.S...Purple Pete had a spectacular outing on guitar today - even by his lofty standards...Forget Tiger King, can't you just picture him in a Barney suit with a matching purple axe?...

As much as I want to love them, the headstock on the old prophecy EX Les Pauls were just the most beautiful thing, not sure about these new "not quite Gibson" headstocks but v excited to try them!

[@SionynJones]

The old clip ear headstock and modern headstock are both traditional epiphone headstock. What people don't realise epiphone are a older guitar manufacture than Gibson. Gibson traditionally was a mandolin manufacturer. Back in day epiphone was Gibson biggest rival. Les pauls original log was an epiphone Les Paul worked for epiphone things could of been very different if epiphone had taken Les up on his solid body guitar. In many way Les and Gibson saved epiphone.

@@SionynJones Kind of sad to see Epiphone become the budget version of Gibson models too. I much prefer the Wilshire to either an SG or a Les Paul.

[@jfinester]

Great playing, you guys! Metal isn’t really my thing, especially the modern down-tuned stuff, but I was playing what passed for metal in the late ‘60s-Cream, Hendrix, Savoy Brown, that sort of thing. You could call it “heavy blues”, I guess, but we just thought of it as hard rock. Later I got into country, funk, and jazz, and it sounds like these Prophecys might be able to handle that too. I would have liked to have heard some more clean playing, especially with the split-coil and voicing switching. I thought I heard a Tele sound lurking in there on the bridge pickup, but it was so brief I wasn’t sure. When the SG version hits the stores I’ll have to try one.
