EbonyLP Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Yesterday I went to a guitar store I was told about that sells alot of Epiphones. I walked inside and was absolutely memorized by the huge wall of Les Pauls and SGs! After trying out a few and thinking about each one, I left with a Epiphone SG G-400 in cherry red. I took some pictures last night but right now I'm at school so I'll upload them this afternoon when I'm home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JefferySmith Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Good choice. Although I have more LP-type than SG type (only one), I like the weight and balance of the SG. I suspect that they might be easier to manufacture, and that can mean easy to manufacture WELL. That usually applies to cameras lenses too.

mgrmatt Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Congrats on the new SG, hope we get to see some pics! I don't have an SG and keep trying to covince myself that I don't need one, we'll see how long that last. mgm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexygibson Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Congrats on the new axe ! I really miss having a SG and am considering picking up one of the " Faded " models. Its essentially a G-400 without the bling and alot of guitar for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgrmatt Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I have JS, the carved top and the colors look relly good I wonder how they play. I have played the Epi 66 reissue SG and I really liked it, the cherry finish looks good the silverburst isn't really my thing but thats me. mgm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EbonyLP Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 Heres the pictures! The guitar looks alot lighter then it actually is in the pics, but that's what sucks about having the flash on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EbonyLP Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 Looks very nice. How do you like the way it plays? It's awesome, it sounds and plays like a dream! The neck is very fast so I can shred through metal songs. I don't know why, but I find it much easier to pick then my other guitar. Also hammer ons and bends seem more easy to pull off. The sound is sweet, gives me a great tone for the types of music I play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrmatt Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Have you seen the new "autumn" SG by Gibson? I really like the looks of that guitar. I went to the local Sam Ash today and tried one of these out, the finish looks dynomite in person and it sound great ( I plugged it into a VOX valvtr VT100 amp) the only problem like a lot of other Gibby SG's that I've play the neck is fairly chunky. If you can live with th neck profile it's a great guitar in my opinion. mgm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maniak Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Nice G-400,,they are incredibly sweet to play arent they,,,i was never an SG guy till i got my Korina G-400 which i bought initially just to match my flying V And Explorer and have a little Korina collection but it quickly turned out to be one of my favorite axes.It turned me into such an SG freak that it made me get a Prophecy GX too!Enjoy!!!
