A stunning, modern take on a legendary guitar design
The new Futura Series guitars from Epiphone are designed for today’s guitarists who want a guitar that delivers professional performance and forward-thinking features. 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 ES-355™ has long been a player favorite, and we’re proud to introduce the new Futura ES-355, a stunning, modern take on the legendary design first introduced in 1958. The Futura ES-355 is a semi-hollowbody model featuring a solid maple centerblock with a weight-relief window for enhanced sustain and improved feedback resistance while remaining lightweight and comfortable to hold and play. It is equipped with a LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece for outstanding intonation and sustain, while Posi-Lok™ strap buttons keep your strap securely attached without any extra hardware. The 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 Super 400-style pearloid split block inlays. The fretboard also features a 10”-14” compound radius, making chording and string bends equally effortless. The 5-ply bound Kalamazoo headstock is equipped with locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners, a Graph Tech® nut, and the Epiphone logo and large Custom split diamond inlays, both in mother-of-pearl.
Powering the Futura ES-355 are a pair of Epiphone’s new ProBucker™ Ignite humbucker™ pickups that can hit your amp hard when you want to, while retaining clarity and note definition. Push/pull volume and tone controls provide coil-splitting and phase options, further enhancing its tonal versatility. The Futura ES-355 is available in two exciting Chromashift color-shifting finishes: Firestorm Shift and Dragonfly Shift, each designed to stand out on camera or on any stage. Whether you’re looking for a high-quality instrument with a modern aesthetic or a versatile instrument with plenty of sonic options, the Futura ES-355 is an excellent choice. Pick one up today and take your content creation, recordings, live performances, and personal expression to a whole new level. It comes packed in a premium gig bag, so it’s ready to join you wherever your muse takes you.
