Depends on what your looking for. The M-400 is alder so it going to be a little brighter sounding. The necks a tiny bit wider and thinner then the MH-400. Both are good guitars.

I had to make this same decision when I bought my Mh-400-

Basically, I made the decision based on looks, and the body wood (mahogany on the Mh, alder in the M) because otherwise, they are pretty Identical.

The reason I picked Mahogany is that it has a warmer, thicker tone than alder. Alder has a slightly brighter, but still very balanced tone.

I've really been checking out the M-400 myself. The M series guitars appeal to me because of the 43mm nut width. I played a bolt-on M-II and that was sweet. If the 400 plays half as good as that, I will be happy.

thanks for the help, so the m-400 plays as well as the mh-400?

^yes- Because they are both 400 series guitars, they are made to the same standards. however, they have slightly different neck dimensions, so I would reccomend playing them both before you pick. I think that the m-400 is alot closer to jackson specs than the mh-400.

I've just recently bought an M-400, and I love everything about it. The neck is great. I would recommend it to anyone.

wtf, where did you get a white one at

You are so lucky to live in Europe :(.

Just kidding!

Sort of....

*sigh*

I just really like the feeling of Mahogany. because the body is heavier than alder... i mean.. a lot heavier. it gives you a stability when you play. mahogany is very balanced when you play standing up.

dude white is fuckin hawt!
