Epiphone Futura RD Custom Electric Guitar - Firestorm Shift
The Epiphone Futura RD Custom Electric Guitar in Firestorm Shift is a bold modern evolution of the rare RD design, reimagined for todayâs guitarist who demands performance, versatility, and standout visual style. Available at Sky Music Australia, this Futura Series model combines iconic-inspired shaping with advanced electronics and premium build quality, making it ideal for stage, studio, and content creation.
Based on the distinctive RD silhouette that blends elements of the Explorerâą and Firebirdâą, this model features a sculpted mahogany body with 7-ply top binding and a contoured back for improved comfort during long playing sessions. The 25.5â scale length enhances clarity, string tension, and tuning stabilityâespecially useful for modern low-tuning styles. A set mahogany neck with a Modern C profile pairs with a bound ebony fingerboard, 22 stainless steel frets, and a 10ââ14â compound radius, delivering smooth playability across complex chords and expressive lead work.
