Epiphone Futura Les Paul Custom Rally Red
Epiphone Futura Les Paul Custom Rally Red
Serial Number: 26051529538
Weight: 7.74 lbs
The Epiphone Futura Les Paul Custom in Rally Red is a limited-edition build made specifically for independent Epiphone dealers, taking Epiphone's feature-packed Futura platform in a striking new direction. In place of the standard chroma-shift finish, this version wears a AAAA figured maple veneer top finished in vivid Rally Red with a racing stripe, wrapped in multi-ply white body binding for a sharp, custom-shop look. Underneath sits a solid mahogany body, and the whole guitar weighs in at a manageable 7.74 lbs. — everything that makes the Futura one of Epiphone's most loaded modern Les Pauls, dressed in a finish you won't find on the standard model.
The mahogany neck carries a Modern "C" carve and is set into the body for maximum sustain and resonance, capped with an ebony fretboard that pairs a 10-14" compound radius with stainless steel frets for a fast, slick playing surface across 22 medium jumbo frets. Super 400-style split block inlays and white fretboard binding dress up the fretboard, while the headstock carries its own split-diamond inlay and multi-ply binding. A 24.75" scale length and 1.69" Graph Tech nut keep the feel familiar to any Les Paul player, and locking Grover tuners paired with an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece — all finished in chrome — add rock-solid tuning stability and sustain.
Electronics come from a pair of Epiphone ProBucker Ignite humbuckers, delivering the Futura's high-output voice with plenty of headroom for both rhythm and lead work. Push/pull tone controls add coil-splitting for airy single-coil tones and in/out-of-phase switching for hollow, percussive textures, giving this Les Paul a tonal range that goes well beyond a traditional two-humbucker setup — whether you're a rock rhythm player, a lead guitarist chasing high-output crunch, or a collector after a genuinely different-looking Futura. This Epiphone Futura Les Paul Custom in Rally Red (Serial #26051529538) ships with a premium Epiphone gig bag. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized Epiphone dealer.
