Epiphone Futura Flying V Custom Quicksilver Shift - EIFFVCQSSNH

A solidbody that cuts through cleanly and stays tight when you dig in

The Epiphone Futura Flying V Custom Quicksilver Shift has a very direct, cutting response that suits players who want their parts to stay clear under gain. The mahogany body gives notes some weight, but the attack comes through cleanly, so riffs don’t get lost when things get louder. It’s the kind of guitar that keeps definition intact, whether you’re playing tighter rhythm parts or pushing into more saturated tones.

The neck has a Modern C profile that feels comfortable and natural — it’s one of those profiles you don’t really think about. The ebony board has a slightly quicker feel than rosewood, and the compound radius helps everything feel even as you move up the neck. Chords sit easily, and bends higher up come off clean without needing to fight for them. Stainless steel frets help keep that feel consistent over time, especially if it’s getting regular use.

The ProBucker Ignite pickups are voiced to stay punchy and articulate. There’s enough output for heavier sounds, but they hold onto note separation, which helps when you’re locking into fast rhythm work or layering parts in the studio. Coil split and phase options are easy to access through the push/pull controls, giving you a bit more range when you need to thin things out or add a different texture mid-set. LockTone hardware and locking tuners keep tuning stable and predictable, so once everything’s set, it stays there. It’s a straightforward setup that holds up well across a set or longer session.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Futura Flying V Custom suits players who want a solidbody that cuts through clearly and stays controlled under gain, especially when playing tighter, more defined parts on stage or in the studio.
