NEW REVIEW - My Pride and Joy

I went into the store looking to buy a new gibson les paul epiphone, but the guy recommended a used Epiphone G-400 SG instead. I thought what the heck, I will trust this guy. I brought it home and absolutely loved it. Finish is great. Plays well. Is lightweight compared to many other electrics. I have had it for over a year and nothing has gone wrong with it. Keep in mind it was used when i bought it! Great buy for a starter. Good buy for an expert!

NEW REVIEW - beautiful finish & amazing sound

This thing is amazing! I was going to buy the Epiphone SG Prophecy EX because of the midnight ebony quilt top finish, but I couldn't afford it, so I got this one to hold me over until I could get one, but it was a heck of alot better that I thought it would be! It has great tone, it's easy to make pinch harmonics, & it can handle full blast on my pedals, & it looks amazing in the cherry finish. I would recommend this to intermediate & higher.

ONE OF THE GREATEST GUITARS EVER!!!!!

BEST GUITAR EVER! I like to try and figure out songs by AC/DC and this Epiphone G400 SG sounds great when I run it through my LINE 6 Spider III Amp on 'crunch'. The guys at my local Guitar Center set it up wicked. And there is nothing 'entry level' about it. I love the look. Love the feel of the finish and controls. Love the quality. Love that it's just like a '61 Gibson SG! Love that it isn't priced like one! Also it has the same Lifetime warranty as the 2 Grand SG! Epiphone ROCKS!

Excellent guitar for beginners and intermediates

I recently got this guitar for my birthday. After three months, it is still in perfect condition. It has a tune-o-matic bridge, which is durable and will last a long time. The grover tuners are kinda cheap, but if you know how to properly string a guitar, this will stay in tune. The pickups are not very good, but they are far from bad, too. Even when I play through my midget 5-watt practice amp, the neck pickup gets no mud, and the bridge pickup bites (in a good way). You can get acoustic like tones from the neck position by rolling back the tone knob. The bridge pickup is perfect for distortion. My only gripe is that the pickups can't handle very large amounts of gain (through a hi-wattage amp). Overall, it is a great guitar for beginners and intermediates, but professionals should save up and get a Gibson. I'm intermediate, and this guitar has everything I need. The neck and body are mahogany, and the fretboard is rosewood. This gives it a natural, warm tone, but it also has full bodied treble attack. The neck is round and kind of fat, but easy to grip and play with. The cherry guitar's finish is beautiful. Avoid the black one, because scratches and fingerprints are easier to see. If you want black, go for the Goth edition because it has a satin black finish which doesn't show fingerprints and scratches very easily. I own the red one and it is great. The fretboard is smooth and so is the neck. Eventually, I'll put two chrome Iommi pickups, Grover 102 tuners, a Gibson tp-6 fine-tune tailpiece, and a Kahler-behind-the-nut Pro Stringlock (but no kahler tremolo). Then it will really rock.

Great SG copy for a decent price!

Although my "Babies" are my Historic series SG Standard (w/vibrola) & my Angus Young signature SG, I've owned Epi SG's since my 1st years of playing. My original G-400 was an upgrade from my G-310 (bolt-neck), soon followed by a limited edition one with an Epi Bigsby (which I customized & still play to this day!). And recently I've acquired a couple of the limited "1965" ones w/Maestro tremelos. There are only 2 things I've never liked about them: 1st being the thicker bodies in comparison to real SG's (& the subsequent beveling issues), 2nd being the lack of neck binding. But other than that, you simply can't get a quality SG for the price. I actually PREFER Epi finishes because they outlast the Gibsons' when you gig with them. Plugged in, there're no huge tonal differences when comparing them to real SG's. Newer ones have better pickups & Grovers too. You will NOT be disappointed, regardless of your playing style!
