Hamer xt vs. epiphone g-400

[Daniel1987]

I've been playing on a 2008 epiphone g-400 that I was offered to trade for my 2003 hamer vector I really like the sound and feel of the SG but the vector is not without charm, thoughts?

I am more V than SG as far as body shape goes I am also more Hamer than Epi fans so I am biased toward the Vector. Also you know what you have with the Vector. You might get a week away from trade and be missing your old friend.

Epiphone SG copies are two a penny. (Sorry, blueman335!) The Hamer would be rather more difficult to replace.

I have modified several Hamer XT series guitars. I have kept two of them because they were too much fun to let them go. With American pickups and controls, this series of guitars is a pleasure to own.

I have both, but prefer playing SG's over XT's. XT's aren't hard to find.

It's really what you like better. Neither one is an investment, if that makes any sense, even if both play and sound like a million bucks. Pick the one that fits you.
