Since Black Sabbath are on their farewell tour apparently and Epiphone came out with a new Iommi signature model in 2015, I take this as an opportune moment to talk about my G-400.
I got it a few years back by sheer luck and I have been quite happy with it ever since.
I must confess I did not try the new model yet, so I can't provide a comparison.
The most important argument for me has always been Gibson's Tony Iommi signature pickups and both models have those built in, so for once I don't have to tinker with the guitar and swap stuff out.
Would I get the new model too? Probably, if the deal is right.
Do I feel the need to replace the old model with the new one?
As I said - pickups are the same so I see no need to do that.
Will the guitar provide automatic Iommi tone?
Does the guitar turn every player into an instant Doom Metal God?
Unsurprisingly no, Witchcraft is not included, it's still just a plank of wood with the benefit of two nice sounding Gibson pickups readily installed.
