I kept all the old wiring and the pickup just in case ;)

Hi, thanks for the reply! I thought as much, it is a nice bass, could prob do with a more expensive pickup on it though, guess I'll keep it as a backup ;)

It's been refinished as someone painted it green with a big brush! Used to be sunburst but it's natural wood now. Reasonable condition for year, a few knocks and marks but then it's 24/26 years old! When I refinished it I also fitted a new wiring harness from http://www.hoaglandbrothers.com/...

Refinished from 'orrible brush painted green!!

Ah I know the feeling, when I was in Sweden for weeks on end I bought a classical to keep me occupied!

Rockem in Rotherham have got an LS95F new for ?729 free shipping, no case though: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tokai-Love-Rock-LS95F-Electric-Guitar-Heritage-Cherry-L_W0QQitemZ400105992010QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item5d282cef4a#ht_3478wt_1161

It was a bit of a 'mare, I offered ?475 which was declined then I offered ?500 then I got another decline email, this was 'cause someone hit the BIN button, as mentioned above :( I kicked myself a little as the BIN was only ?20 more than my offer. To my surprise I got an email from the seller...

I missed out on it, someone hit the BIN before my offer was considered. Looks like I'll be checking out Tokais at the weekend then ;) Whereabouts in Lough? I work in Stanford-on-Soar just outside Lough itself.

Thank Joop, what tuners do you suggest? Gotohs, Grovers?

Just to let you all know, I've placed an offer on the Orville, fingers crossed!

Innadaze, someone laughed yesterday that I have many guitars; only a paltry six, but now youve raised the bar! That's a hell of a collection! Good on you!!

Mono, seen your post on MyLesPaul forum, am waiting for my activation code to come through for that forum, hasnt' arrived yet... I appreciate the post thanks a lot!

Great! If you could ask around that'd be great, I've told the seller that if he can guarantee it's genuine then I'll buy it, we have already discussed prices... can't wait to add a Jap to my livery ;) Never could get the hang of holding a guitar right handed, at least I tried LOL

I was sold on a Tokai but then I spotted an Orville on eBay, read great reviews here and elsewhere about them so I'm severely tempted to get it, just can't tell if it's a genuine one, looks ok to me though. Have posted a topic about it in the Orville section of this forum, hoping to get an...

Hi all, Newbie desperately trying to get my hands on a decent leftie Jap Gibson copy and I spotted this but can't travel to Scotland to verify it's quality. I've read lots of posts here and you guys seem to be the ones to ask! So what do you venerable people think of it...
