Hi. Been a while since I posted here. Been looking for an SG for a while, and finally came to the conclusion I'd like a decent high end Tokai one. Only criterion at the moment is that it must be a lacquer finished version (not hard shiny poly) - so that means it should probably be one of the...

I own two of these guitars, so should know the answer.. :oops: The Love Rock 2 has two humbuckers, one master volume control and one master tone control. Each of these is a push-pull type. Is the functionality: 1) The master controls are push-pull - with each one splitting one humbucker into...

This is for sale locally.. https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/signature-str1-tanglewood-mij-lespaul-read-/1365735764 Looks remarkably like a Love Rock from that era. Worth £500 for a MIJ long-tenon/quilted top anybody reckon ?

I'm wondering if Tokai Japan ever produce any dark red/ burgundy coloured (or quilted maple patterned) LoveRocks ? If so, can anybody steer me towards some pics ? Thanks, Alan

Might have posted this one when it was for sale earlier: https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/1972-japanese-sigma-les-paul.-tokai-martin.-swap-/1364690960 A slow seller at £700 Sg asking.

This gold top is for sale near me: https://www.adverts.ie/electric-guitars/tokai-les-paul/19521672?notification=b01371e5759684bb834598a577e93315-1579730495&utm_campaign=AdWatchCommented&utm_medium=link&utm_source=email Some debate as to whether it's an LS75 or an LS110. Anybody able to advise...

Bought this a little while back: It's a 2004 Fernandes Ravelle Elite (with the sustainer pickup). Really enjoying it, and think its a well put together guitar. Wondering if there are any other current or ex-owners on here ?

I've been drawn towards the tone (and indeed the look) of the mini - Humbucker equipped Les Pauls of late. Was wondering has anybody either seen, or indeed modified a standard double humbucker or P90 equipped LoveRock to take the smaller pickups ?

Apologies if this has been asked before - but can anybody help with a beginner's guide describing how to tell the difference in MIJ vs MIK and MIC SG models ? Thanks, Alan

Came across this on a local classified site - a 'Linos' guitar: https://www.adverts.ie/electric-guitars/linos-semi-hollow-guitar/19340876 Pretty thing. Have tried google for some more information on the brand, but have found zilch. Anybody seen or heard of them before ?

Hi, I wanted to contact Tokai to query the exact model of one of my my LoveRocks. I used their UK company email - [email protected]. Sent off the query about a week ago, but haven't received anything yet to even acknowledge receipt of the query. Starting to wonder whether it's just the...

I've been looking at some of the vintage Greco Mirage/Ibanez Iceman (or should that Icemen?) for sale on Ebay and Reverb (part of the ongoing hunt tp and the right one..) I noticed that any of the sellers are based in Japan - not surprising given the relative rarity of some of the models in...

I've had my LS65 for a while now, but have never really liked the pickups it came with - a pair of Seymour Duncans. I believe the Seymour Duncans in it are a 'Jazz humbucker' in the neck and a 'JB' in the bridge - supposedly the combination of choice for those looking for a 'meaty rock lead...

After spotting an M600 in an ad (semi)locally - which I didn't succeed in buying - I've developed a bit of a hunger for one of these pointy guitars. Does anybody have, or know of a half decent Mirage or 1st generation Ibanez (late 70's Iceman or earlier Artist) for sale anywhere ? Appreciate...

I haven't posed in this sub forum before, but could definitely be interested in this 1978 model Mirage https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/greco-mirage-guitar/1329967139 Wondering if it looks genuine to you guys - plus any other pointers or things to check for a potential bidder/buyer...

Been thinking a bit more about the finishes on some of the Tokais I have. The one that has me pondering most is the blue quilted one - similar to the LR105Q in the link brokentoes kindly posted below: I haven't been able to determine for sure whether the quilted finish is actually a solid...

On eBay.. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tokai-LS186S-GT-1999-H97/202320488756?hash=item2f1b3da934:g:QxQAAOSwKHBbbu8H 90s Love Rock with a trapeze tailpiece - didn't know there was such a thing. Was there ?

I have a spare pair of hum buckers off a MIJ Loverock early 2000s ( I think) vintage. Thinking of fitting them into an Aria Explorer to replace the awful pups it came with. One problem is the Aria hardware is gold, and the Loverock pups are silver coloured. I was wondering what they look like...

Spotted for sale locally. Best clue probably comes from the 'Made in Japan' neck plate. https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/vintage-telecaster/1348203454 Anybody confirm who made it ? Thanks, Alan
