Featuring striking, colour-shifting finishes, newly designed pickups, and versatile electronics like coil-splitting and phase switching, Futura guitars give players the tools to stand out both visually and sonically. Premium details such as stainless steel frets, compound-radius fingerboards, and ultra-comfortable neck profiles make these instruments a forward-thinking choice for any serious guitarist.
The Gibson Flying V™ remains one of the most iconic and adventurous designs in electric guitar history. First introduced in the late 1950s, its futuristic shape was ahead of its time, eventually becoming a favourite among rock and metal players worldwide. Epiphone proudly introduces the Futura Flying V Custom—a striking, modern interpretation of that groundbreaking design. Its angular mahogany body features elegant 7-ply top binding, paired with a LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece for exceptional sustain and tuning stability. Posi-Lok™ strap buttons keep your strap secure without extra hardware.
The glued-in mahogany neck sports a sleek Modern C profile for effortless playability, topped with a bound ebony fingerboard featuring 22 stainless steel medium jumbo frets and sophisticated Super 400-style pearloid split block inlays. A 10”-14” compound radius ensures smooth chording and bends, while the bound arrowhead-shaped headstock includes locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with kidney buttons, a Graph Tech® nut, and elegant mother-of-pearl inlays for the Custom split diamond and Epiphone logo.
At the heart of the Futura Flying V Custom are Epiphone’s new ProBucker™ Ignite humbuckers™, delivering powerful tones with clarity and definition. Two push/pull volume controls enable coil-splitting, while a push/pull tone control adds phase switching for even greater sonic flexibility. Available in two stunning Chromashift finishes—Quicksilver Shift and Solaris Shift—this guitar is designed to turn heads on stage or on screen. Whether you’re after a modern aesthetic, versatile electronics, or a performance-ready instrument at an accessible price, the Futura Flying V Custom delivers. Each one ships with a premium gig bag, ready to accompany you wherever inspiration strikes.
