It's a great guitar in near mint condition ..... but I have to sell it! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7359404738 Cheers, Rob

Hi, I use a Mesa Boogie 50 Caliber+ for just about everything and all of the Love Rocks sound great through it! I also have just bought a 1964 Gibson Falcon amp and they sound VERY cool through it too. 8) I like this amp so much I sold my 58 Fender Super .... Cheers, Rob

Hi! RE: If anyone knows of a maker, who screws there neck pickup to the body, rather than the pick guard, please drop me a line. As far as I know, every Tele has the pickup screwed into the body - never on the pickguard. Cheers, Rob

Hi, I have never shipped a guitar to the U.K. before. I would need your full address and postal code in the U.K. to calculate it. If you could email me that information at: [email protected] I would be happy to research it for you. All the best, Rob

Good point, but actually I could have, as I got in 27 years ago when they were just a little more than a new one! I traded a Twin reverb for it (and a Black Face Tremolux that served me for years). I also have a Fender/Squire "JV" series Strat, that were the first Japanese made Fender 50's...

Hi all, I have listed my Cherry Burst Love Rock 2001 Limited Edition on Ebay. As I have two of them, and have just bought an 84 Tokai Goldtop, something has to go! It's a beauty, collectible and MINT. With case. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2551265130 Cheers, Rob

Hi all, Here is my 2 cents worth .... if you are going to do anything to a guitar, think forward to 40 years from now and what they will think of it then. You might destroy the value of a future classic! When Peter Greene and Clapton and friends started playing the '50's Les Pauls, they...

Hi again, Thanks for the info! I bought this guitar from Japan, and it will be coming home here to Canada to join a pair of MM-2001 Limited Editions, a modified Tokai Tele beastie of some sort, and a Gold Top ALS58V (with the Tokai Bigsby). It looks like I will have to do a web page on...

HI all!, I just won this beautiful old Love Rock (and wow am I excited)! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2549564364&ssPageName=ADME:B:BN:US:1 I think I got a pretty good deal as well..... however, The serial number starts with "4" making it a 1984, but I have looked on...

Hi, I owned one of those once - I regret trading it now! It was a very fine axe and a LOT of fun to play. I did some research (including contacting Mike) and it seems they were indeed made in Korea Congratulations! Rob

Hey again, I just wanted to say "Thanks!" to all who answered. I thought I knew the answer, but it was nice to have it confirmed. Cheers, Rob

Hey again, I had to wonder as there are 2 listings that use the term "Custom Shop" on Ebay ... first is a really average looking Tokai Tele: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2546543756&category=2384 and the other is a Mikes Music guitar...

Hi all! Once in a while I see an Ebay ad for a "Custom Shop" Tokai. Does (or did a "Custom Shop" ever exist? Thanks, Rob :o

Hi OR WORSE, he got an offer on it and decided to rip the high bidder and not pay the Ebay fees. That has happened to me 3 times in the last 2 months for guitars. One of them even had the nerve to tell me "he had an offer he couldn't resist" when I emailed him and said "What happened to...
