I've worked on a heap of the Prophecy series, and generally find bad fretwork, This Epiphone SG Prophecy unfortunately had the same issues, a plastic nut that was too high and frets that were all over the place, with niggling fret buzz and uncomfortable playability.
Levelled, crowned and dressed the frets, removed the plastic nut before handcrafting a bone nut to the perfect height. This now plays like a higher-end Epiphone should, even with a low action there are zero rattles or buzz with effortless smooth bends, with addition of Fishman Fluence pickups this is perfect for any style - although I'm told this is mainly going to be a Heavy Metal machine 🤘🏻🎸⚡
