where abouts is the ' made in japan ' stamp on the neck ?

I may of seen this guitar , or one like it before about a week ago when I was looking on the net about ES60 s. It may of been on you tube or through google images ? The guy said he had the block inlays put in by a friend.

definately , some of those old budget guitars were barely playable and did not stay in tune for more than 1 song. Things have moved on a lot and quality is getting better. been looking into getting a 2nd guitar like an sg or es60 as the love rock starts to hurt my shoulder after an hour or so...

maybe cheap isn't the right word. Budget or low end maybe a better way to descibe them. Guitars like fender squier , epiphone , chinese made tokai .

I have found that the action , intonation and tuning on cheaper guitars to be the main problem. esp the action , never played a cheap guitar that has had a nice low action . Prehaps its that they are never set up properly in the shop ? I had a yamaha pacifica that i got as a spare / dropped...

over the years i have tried out many guitars from cheap ?100 strat copies up to les pauls / prs over ?2000. As expected the cheaper guitars dont play or sound as good as the expensive ones. what i am trying to understand is the resons why and the factors included . most cheaper guitars sound...

i love the way the bass player decides to hit him too . . . what a put down.

Hi , does anyone know when production switched from korea to china ? played a sg35 earlier and was an 06 serial number but had no made in sticker on headstock.

anyone know how the chinese es 60 compare to the chinese epi dots ? just curious cause been thinking about getting a semi hollow as my back is giving in to the weight of my love rock after 3hrs of practicee. i love the guitar but the neck pain is starting to get to me.

hi , yes it was rockers in denmark street. They had quite a selection of tokais in there. They said they may be getting some in a couple of weeks, but as I rarely go to London I was trying to find one elsewhere. They have a nice matte finish zebra pick up jap love rock in there if anyone is...

Hi , been looking around for a rh es60 for a while now and cant seem to find one . Was in London last weekend and one of the shops in denmark street street had sold out and only had lh. Anyone seen any about or know if they are on shortage ? Seems odd cause there are loads of love rocks and sgs...

Cant understand why they have the odd headstock and reborn name. it was for sale for ?650 which is a lot I think as its 2nd hand and looks awful. no doubt it plays well though if its a japanese made model.

Hi , whilst out lookin ground the local guitar shop I noticed a 2nd hand tokai for sale. It was a gold top, japanese made les paul style guitar . The thing that stuck out the most was that it had an odd headstock shape. Rather than having an open book shape it had a rounded top. After having a...

Here in the UK an LS85F love rock costs around ?700 and a Les paul standard ?1900 , its a big difference in price for nearly the same spec of guitar. Yet the ES125 is ?1000 and Gibson ES 335 is ?1500 , which is not quite a bigger differnce for a similar guitar . Any ideas ? Maybe you pay a...

I replaced the stock pickups ( mk4s)in my ls85f to irongear rolling mills and am really impressed with them. they are about ?25 a pickup.

Hi , been a while since I have been on here. good to be back, As the SG was introduced in 1961 does it mean that they have the 60s slim taper necks ?

I was in Denmark street , London ,a couple of weeks ago looking at guitars and was amazed at the amount of Chinese Tokais on sale in the shops. one of the shops I was looking at a Chinese SG 35 , had a price tag on the guitar that said " Londons biggest Gibson dealer" on it, made me chuckle...
