Made around 2002 the Epiphone Beast FX (aka Xplorer FX) has a modified explorer shaped body and all the other features of the Xplorer model but with two effects units built in.The chorus effect uses an IC known as the "Bucket Brigade". The distortion effect provides an effect ranging from a blues clip to a full-on overdrive with the turn of the gain knob. These effects have true bypass circuits to avoid "tone sucking" when not in use.

The Epiphone Bully (2001 - 2002) was an SG style electric with a 24.75" scale length bolt-on maple neck.

Epiphone gave this justification for their Pierced SG design in 2002:

"The SG has always been the axe of choice for those looking for drop-dead cool. Now we've taken an already snarling beast and given it a darker side.
