Sweetwater has the Epiphone Les Paul Prophecy Electric Guitar in Olive Tiger Aged Gloss on sale for $699. The other finishes cost $899. To me, the highlight of this guitar is the Fishman Fluence pickups. These are powered pickups, but not "active" in the high-output EMG sense; they offer three voices: vintage, modern, and single coil. In my experience, Fishman Fluence offers better and more diverse sounds than solutions like coil splitting.

Highlights from Sweetwater include:
  • Fuses classic Les Paul design with modern style, sound, and playability
  • Mahogany body with attention-grabbing carved hard-maple top — the tried-and-true LP tonewood combination
  • Multi-voice Fluence humbuckers provide vintage and modern humbucker tones, plus hum-free single-coil textures
  • Super-comfortable mahogany neck with an ergonomic asymmetrical SlimTaper shape
  • Fast-playing 12-inch-radius ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets
  • Contoured heel makes accessing higher frets effortless
  • Ultra-modern weight relief for added comfort during marathon performances and extra-long sessions
  • Grover-locking Rotomatic tuners supply rock-solid tuning stability and lightning-fast string changes
  • LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece provide optimal tone and near-endless sustain
  • Graph Tech NuBone nut adds sustain and clarity
  • Eye-catching custom binding and a sharp-looking aged gloss finish

Yeah, I'm quite pleased with just seeing a guitar post that isn't Adorama.

The fishman pickups used to be available in the prophecy line of epiphone's, nice to see them being put in the lower end ones now too. This is a good deal on a great guitar! Thanks OP, thanks for posting.

FYSA, I ordered one of these this morning, and just got the call from Sweetwater confirming that I knew it was a back order (I did). I didn't know ETA though, I assumed maybe a few weeks out, but it looks like the estimate is Feb-March before the backorders are received and ship out. It is a rough estimate given guitar backorders are all over the place ever since the pandemic... just thought anyone considering backordering this would be interested in the *rough* ETA.

I have 2 Gibson Studio LP's and this still really interests me. It combines a lot of modern specs that I love. Any Gibson Les Paul players have experience with these 'modern' versions they'd like to share?
