If I remember correctly, you bought it like that didn't you Yori? Really cheap as I remember. Congrats all this time later! :)

Thanks. And you're right. Very cheap, 2000JPY!! I fixed and painted it.
Whoa! That's exactly the same way the neck broke as mine... I have seen the same cases happened on G400, whose serial # begins with "U", several times. This is why I have a bad impression about G400. So...for me NO more G400s!! I'm interested in reparing guitars, though.
Anyway, thanks for the info, timmy! :)

I'm sure most other G400s don't do that. I've never seen a Faded like that.
My g400's serial number starts with a U, and it has a little chip of wood like a spec that the paint bubbles up but it looks like a piece of wood wasnt sanded right. It is right where the body is before the neck where it has that slight curve before the neck is glued on, and it is under the paint. Mine was made in 2002.

I've seen some bad examples and they all have serial # starts with "U". But MOST of them are OK, I think. Not all of 'em.
