Description
The Epiphone Futura ES-355 Electric Guitar in Firestorm Shift is a modern evolution of one of the most iconic semi-hollow designs in electric guitar history. Available at Sky Music Australia, this Futura Series model blends classic ES elegance with forward-thinking performance features built for today’s stage, studio, and content creators.
Based on the legendary Gibson ES-355 design first introduced in 1958, the Futura ES-355 features a semi-hollow 5-ply maple/poplar body with a solid maple center block and weight-relief window for improved comfort, sustain, and feedback control. This construction delivers a rich, resonant tone with clarity and warmth, making it suitable for everything from clean jazz tones to high-gain rock textures. A set mahogany neck with a fast Modern C profile pairs with a bound ebony fingerboard, offering 22 stainless steel frets and a 10”–14” compound radius for smooth, effortless playability across the entire neck.
