This product is no longer available.
A classic SG now with Alnico Classic PRO pickups and coil-tapping! Epiphone honors the historic SG, one of the most original designs in rock, with the G-400 PRO, which now features Alnico Classic PRO pickups and push/pull coil-tapping. The original SG not only rivaled guitars of its own era for sonic variety but also proved to be a sign of things to come. Scores of rock, hard rock and metal guitarists embraced the original SG and made it a classic. Now, the G-400 PRO gives you the sound and look of a real SG without the vintage price tag and with the added tonal variety that you've come to expect from Epiphone.
The SG Story: When the SG, or "Solid Guitar," was introduced in 1961 as a replacement for the Les Paul Standard, it was called the "fretless wonder" for its low frets and fast action. The twin horn cutaway design was like nothing on the market and its light but balanced weight made it the perfect guitar for stage and studio work. Later '60s models introduced the SG with humbucker pickups, and since then, the SG has became the go-to guitar for artists like The Who's Pete Townshend, Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi, Paul Weller, AC/DC's Angus Young, Eric Clapton and Derek Trucks of the Allman Brothers Band.
Built for Classic SG Performance: The G-400 PRO is inspired by the late '60s era SGs, both a player's and collector's favorite, and uses the same dimensions and build techniques as vintage SGs made in the Kalamazoo, Michigan, factory during that classic era. The solid, tone-rich mahogany carved body gives the guitar a balanced feel on stage and in the studio (unlike cheap imitations that tend to be neck-heavy). The new Wilkinson Vintage Classic tuners are also lighter weight which makes your G-400 PRO feel perfectly balanced on stage and in the studio. The SlimTaper "D" profile mahogany neck has a 24.75" scale with 22 frets and a 12" radius for incredible reach thanks to the SG's classic cutaway. And for that one-of-a-kind SG feel, the G-400 has a rosewood fingerboard with a 1.68" nut. The truss rod cover is the classic Kalamazoo bell shape with SG PRO in white.
Alnico Classic PRO Power: Epiphone always finds a way to make improvements on our classic designs and the G-400 PRO is no exception. Now featuring Epiphone Alnico Classic PRO 4-wire humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions, the G-400 PRO offers a tonal palette that far exceeds any other guitar of its kind. The Alnico Classic PROs feature Alnico V magnets for terrific humbucker sustain with a huge dynamic range that can go from clean to crunch at a touch. And now, the G-400 PRO features coil-tapping on both pickups via a push/pull control on the pickups' volume controls.
Epiphone Hardware You Can Trust: Epiphone leads the way in manufacturing great-sounding guitars for players of all levels and that goes for our great hardware, too. Epiphone provides quality, all-metal hardware on all its instruments including full-function volume and tone knobs using full-size 500K potentiometers matched with Epiphone's rugged, all-metal, 3-way toggle pickup selector switch for long-lasting performance. The G-400 PRO features our famous LockTone bridge and Stopbar tailpiece which yields incredible sustain along with Wilkinson Vintage Classic 14:1 tuners for lifetime security. The G-400 PRO comes in classic Cherry (CH) or Ebony (EB) finish. Left-handed models are available in Cherry (CH).

This thing looks the part and feels great in your hands. I love picking it up and feeling the slim taper D neck. However, I seem to be having tuning issues. This may go up for sale sometime soon and I will use the money for an SG Custom.
Also the nut from factory was absolute trash. Had really high action and was made of cheap plastic. This guitar is no longer in production so if you are looking here chances are you are looking at one used. Just be aware of tuning instability and a potential nut job. Otherwise this plays really nicely and sounds great. I enjoy the coil tap, but I feel like I may invest in a Strat at some point to get that true authentic tone from a single coil.

I have wanted an SG since 1976. In my home town to check on my Mom and we out for a drive to look at Xmas lights. Walk in to look around the new L & Mc Store. There it was staring at me. USED Epiphone SG 400 Pro ... not a mark on it. If there is one then I put it there ... The action was a liitle high but that is OK. I am learning to play Electric Slide Guitar so it now has 12 gauge strings. I just love this thing ... $349 Used and my Birthday was the next day ... In the store 15 minutes and its New Guitar Day !!! Incredible value for the $$$$ ... The Build Quality, Overall Appearance, Fit and Finish, Pickups, Tuners ( Holds Tune really well very stable ) ... all great .... Buy one ... You Will Love !!!

The sound and feel of this guitar are up to snuff, and are actually quite good for this price range. No complaints there. But Epiphone is clearly using bargain basement parts. The silver covers that say "tone" and "volume" have already fallen off two control knobs. The jack comes loose and falls inside the guitar body every few days. It will not stay in tune. I think that's all. Aside from the fact that it's falling apart after only three months of semi-regular use, it's an awesome guitar.

I bought one of these in the fall of 2019 on a whim. Needed a set-up which I had done, and it plays great. They aren't real good sellers on the second hand market though. If you buy one of these you're stuck with it unless you take a bigger loss than you already would selling it yourself. Been trying to get rid of mine for 6 months now. People just aren't into this guitar. Most say because they think it's ugly and neck heavy...which it is. Ugly though? Not sure about that. Had one Jesus freak tell me it looked like the devil. WTF? Great guitar, but it doesn't sound a whole lot different than a Les Paul . Different feel though with the longer neck. I recommend this guitar for someone just starting out, or for the seasoned musician looking to add to their collection for an economical price.

Very nice instrument. I initially thought about swapping out the pickups for some EMGs but these Alnicos have a tremendously warm tone that I've really fallen in love with. Feels great in my hands, easy to play. The g string doesn't like to stay in tune, I'm going to swap out the strings and see if a lighter gauge might help. All in all this guitar is my new baby, I've already christened her "Ruby" aka The Red Devil.

I am an Ibanez fanboy, however I do tend to enjoy SG bodystyle guitars, and Les Pauls, and with Gibson I always worry about the whole headstock thing. (( Gibson headstocks are angled at 17 degrees, Epiphone is at 14 degrees.)) So when I saw the Epiphone, my brain told me "Meh, it's not a Gibson, it's under $1000, it's gonna suck." My heart told me to shut up and just sit down and try it. Instantly blown away. I had brought my iPad with me which has BIAS FX, and my iRig so I could jam, and my speaker was a SONY XB31 portable bluetooth. I didn't want to put the guitar down. I tried at least another 10+ guitars, ranging from $500 - $1800. I am poor, however money wasn't fully an issue. This guitar simply was not going to leave my hands. There were others I enjoyed as much at $1500 range...this is 1/3 price. I've been playing guitar for 30+ years on and off, and though I'm not good, I can still tell you that the sustain of this guitar unplugged is nice. Please...pick a guitar up, and before you start slapping amps, pedals, or effect processor apps like BIAS FX, AXIOM, Amplitube, etc. play it unplugged acoustically. I have an Ibanez Iceman Paul Stanley signature PS120 model which is roughly $1350 over twice the weight, has ebony fretboard, and this SG sounds better unplugged, and it's a bit louder. I'm not saying that means anything, however I thought I'd share. When plugged in, sure, for my taste I prefer the Iceman's 59' Neck and Custom 5 bridge Seymour Duncans. Remember I am a die hard Ibanez fanboy, however I call a spade a spade. Next time you walk into a store, and you see something that catches your eye, please ignore the name on the headstock, and at least give it a try unplugged for a moment, then of course plug it in. Yes, there are better guitars, I won't deny that, but at this price range? I haven't myself yet found another contender. Sorry for the long rant.

Purchased 1 month ago. I really wanted a Gibson sg but... at 1/4 the price hard to beat this. Nut needed a little attention but many of the Gibson would have also to my liking. 20min job. Rest was pretty well set up. No buzzing with preferred action. Stock pick ups sound great.. split coil option. Not sure what else to say. On sale.. 2 thumbs up. p.s. stays in tune fine.

Bought this Jan.15th from my local music store. Great looking guitar. Fit and finish is great. But it just won't stay in tune. One minute it's flat, the next it's sharp. The tuners are terrible. You turn them and the string pitch doesn't move. Will be requesting a return. Very disappointed in this guitar.

I rx'd this as a gift. Mine has the gold hardware, which is particularly eye-popping, against the deep red cherry finish. I have several electric guitars in my arsenal, but this one is quickly becoming a favourite. I admit to having a bit of a bias against Made In China guitars. Many seem to be made on the cheap, with little attention to quality, primarily to cash in on their more famous name-brand counterparts. But this one is changing my mind. The fit and finish is top notch, and the sound is great! It is a truly beautiful guitar, and nice to play. I can't see how I'd be any happier with a Gibson SG, and it is certainly much easier on the budget than its pricier cousin. I highly recommend this to anyone considering it.

These have ballooned in price over the years, I was lucky to pick one at an unbelievable price of $223 dollars used. I found this beauty at a local second hand store. My model is from 2013 and doesn't have binding on the fretboard which the latest versions do, they get better and better. I was looking at a gibson sg but this is just fine. They say it has a slim taper neck but isn't, it's quite thick and neck heavy, just be careful. What I love is that there no shrinking of the neck in the wintertime wereas some guitars from asia suffer from sharp fret ends, not this. AC/DC, The Who, The Doors, Black Sabbath, it's here to discover.

I have to admit I bought one on a whim, but wasn't disappointed-I noticed immediately that its construction was very solid, despite having such a lovely eye-catching appearance in the original-SG burgundy red, which I admit swayed me, but I found that it's actually a real guitar underneath. The body, the bridge, the neck and even the control pots right down to the humbucking pickups are all very nice, and how L&M can put these on sale and still make a profit escapes me. So compared with a Gibson SG.. it felt just a little bit clunky and the strings maybe didn't feel quite as 'live', but if you don't have several times the cash to burn this will definitly fit the bill, and easily make a great choice for a first electric, then become a back-up guitar (you want to change a string when you're playing in a show??) and later on you can sacrifice it on stage when you're a rock god!

The finish is gorgeous in red (you can see the nice wood grain through the finish), the action is great, the tone is beautiful and it has awesome versatility overall. I owed lots of instruments, and I can guarantee that it's a great value. -I bought an amp as well, so I did financing, and I must say, L and M's financing options are also fantastic.

I've been playing guitar for almost 20 years and have owned a variety of different instruments. I was recently in the market for a new electric guitar and wanted a SG as I had a chance of playing one a few years ago and really liked it. I didn't feel like paying the big name pricetag so I went with the much cheaper Epiphone version and I am glad I did. The guitar is built very well and is flawless. Originally I was worried about what the pick ups would sound like and wanted to order a set of EMG's alongside the guitar but there is no need. The pick ups sound fantastic both clean and distorted and the coil tapping option is great. I play mostly metal and this guitar delivers. Overall this is a well built and great sounding guitar that is worth every penny. Can't recommend it enough.

I asked for this guitar for Christmas (assuming I probably wouldn't get it). It was a bit of a gamble for me, as I wasn't sure how a cheaper version of a better but very pricey guitar would be. Obviously, I did get it, and let me just say it is AMAZING. I play rock and metal, and this suits my needs PERFECTLY. The build quality is great, the pickups sound wonderful, and it's easy to glide across the strings (assuming they're nice and clean). I would highly recommend this guitar, not just as a budget guitar, but as a guitar you wouldn't be afraid to play, and sound amazing while doing so.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
