History: I mostly play rockin all it's forms. I'm not in a band but I jam with a lot of different people.
Purchase: I bought this guitar from music123.com for $350 because I needed a better guitar than the beginner guitar that I had.
What I Like About This Unit: It plays wonderfully. I can't really tell a difference between this guitar and the gibsons. It's really light which is good if your playing for long periods of time. It also sounds wonderful through an amp.
What I Do NOT Like About The Epiphone G-400: Since the guitar is so light the weight of the headstock causes the neck to point down whenever you let go of the neck, so that's pretty annoying. The major problem eith this guitar is the input jack is right on the front of the body and it's really weak right there. My friend was playing it and he stepped on the cable and jarred the guitar and it cracked the guitar and it has become so bad now that I have to buy a new guitar.
G-400 Quality: It seems to be pretty good except for the problem I mentioned above.
Summary: I wouldn't risk buying this guitar if I were you. I would reccomend saving up a little extra money and buying a les paul. Les Pauls are a lot sturdier.
