I had it set up and played it out the other day at a local jam. I think it's an ES100RNas through the Deluxe Reverb I was using it just howled. It's a keeper!
It got a LOT of compliments as did the 85 Paisley.
I would but as above the label is missing-- probably will only be able to tell by taking them out or an output reading.
Only other thing is that the pickguard bracket appears to be loose. It appears it was glued to the back of the pickguard. For those who have them, is this right?
Wulfman:
The seller said it was a 1980. It had a small headstock with typical Tokai inlay and the "Golden Era" was much more LP esque font than the Bison you have there. The "reissue" was vertical rather than horizontal from what I recall.
I must say it was a GREAT guitar but had been played...
Brand new to Tokai. Picked these up at the local guitar show today:
Think this is an 1981 Es-100 -- serial is 1011822. No label inside however but great shape with original case. Anyone have information about these pickups?
1985 ATE-67. L23052. Small ding on the back only. James...
