Swoop Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Are there any differences, other than finishes, between the G400 and G400 Deluxe I know the Deluxe is a limted model and has been discontinued I believe, but my local guitar shop has some in stock and they're the same price as a regular G400. I've recently sold my G-310 so my guitar fund has been boosted quite healthily and I'm now in the market for a new toy. The G400 is available in Cherry and Ebony. The Deluxe comes in Flame Vintage Sunburst, Trans Amber, and Trans Red. Does anyone have a pic of the two Trans finished ones? I have seen the Vintage 'Burst one and it's quite nice, but I'm still undecided. I'm undecided whether I want to lay that much down on a guitar really. The G400 is $800NZ, which equates to $450US, about $150US more than you'll pay for one over there. It also won't come with a case. There are a couple of used G400s for sale here which come with a case, one black and one cherry. The black one was built in '04 and is $400NZ including the case. The Cherry one, which I would prefer as one black guitar is difficult enough to keep clean, was built in '07, so it's quite a bit newer, is $550NZ also including a case. I'd love a brand spanking new guitar, but I'm just not sure I want to completely empty my guitar fund and then have to shell out even more for a case. Thoughts?

Bender 4 Life Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 The difference is purely cosmetic........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 I figured as much. Good looking guitar that Falme Vintage Sunburst. I'm not normally a fan of flame, but I do like it on that SG. Anyway, I have gone for the used Cherry G400 with case for $550. Still leaves me with some money in my guitar fund which is good. This is it here, but I'll post some more pics when I get it and give it a polish, looks a bit grubby in the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RotcanX Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 You did well. That's an EE model, and they're the best G-400s that Epiphone has ever produced. Being a 2007, it might even have the new ultra-slim neck profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
