    Anyone else seen this?

    80’s neck with round laminate rosewood board. Double side dot markers - mistake or because it was a painted neck? Surely someone else has seen this? Https://photos.app.goo.gl/DQvsHkQFVrohf9c77

    New/Old Super Edition purchased - photos added - advice needed

    Okay, I’ve bought a somewhat beat up, Strat type Super Edition from eBay and will post some pics and links up when I receive it. My first questions are: Has anyone ever sanded the paint finish off the back of a Tokai neck. The one I’ve bought has been sanded off and has double side dot markers...

    Tokai Goldstar - is perfect tuning impossible?

    Well, after my last post about intonation, I've uploaded a new video on the subject which I hope will start a bit of discussion. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QaB2P-Cnugw&feature=youtu.be I think I've found that perfect intonation is impossible on an electric guitar. I believe perfect...

    Intonation issue.

    Recently, I've pulled my Goldstar apart to clean and service it. It got cleaned and polished, chrome shined, truss rod/neck relief adjusted (that's a pain in the *** on its own, having to take the flippin neck off), new strings and a final set up. For as long as I remember, I've had trouble with...

    I hate looking and listening to myself, but here's a video of my two Tokai Goldstar Sound's. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6e05iItC1S4 I bought the white one new in late 1983 from JG Windows, Newcastle (off the bloke who went on to have a couple of hits with The Kane Gang). ST 50. U pickups...
