Thanks Gabe. Good to know. :)

Hi, I'm after a V neck Strat, ST-80 or ST-100. Thanks. Paul.

SOLD - Thanks Prudd!

In the end I decided to take out the Fralins and put the original p/ups back in the guitar. The guitar and the Lindy Fralin pickups are now for sale separately in the classifieds section. http://www.tokaiforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=16344 http://www.tokaiforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=16345

(SOLD) Lindy Fralin Vintage Hot Stratocaster Pickups (3). With vintage white covers. The bridge p/up has the backplate which gives a 'Tele' like twang to the tone. They are about 5 years old and I've been using them in my 'parts-caster with Goldstar sound neck' (also for sale at ?250 OBO)...

2 tone SB strat with maple Goldstar Sound neck from around 1984/85 with Kluson tuners (which I added). Original tuners also included with sale. I'm unsure what the rest of the guitar is. For further info on this guitar please check out this thread here ...

Aye...after thinking about it over night, what I'll probably do is remove the Lindy Fralins. Then either part it out, sell the neck separately etc ..or..give the guitar to some young relatives to have fun with (if they want it!). I don't feel too hard done by...it's been a good workhorse strat...

Ouch...that's a shame. Looks like I'll be selling it as a 'partscaster' then. Any thoughts as to approx value a) with Lindy Fralins incl. b) with the original p/ups back in ?

Thanks guys. I've taken the guitar apart, as suggested. The only marking I could spot is '5-16' at the neck butt. The extra screw you can see in the tremolo block is a device my luthier put in so you can tighten the tremolo arm position (quite handy). Here are the pics.

Thanks Mike. No, nothing stamped on the neck-plate. No rubber backing plate (behind neck plate) either...must be a trick of the light in the photo. Is it unusual for an ST40 not to have a serial no. on the neck plate? Yes, when I definitely decide to sell I'll include the original tuners and...

Thanks for the post Marcus.

I have a GoldStar Sound Strat which I think comes from the late 70's early 80's. I'm thinking of selling it so need to be able offer an accurate description. I've changed the p'ups for Linday Fralin Vintage hots and the tuners for Kluson Deluxe. I'll add pictures of the original p/ups & tuners...

Anyone know where I might find a Rockinbetter 12 string? I'm borrowing one at the moment and really like it. It's very like a Rick 360/12 except that the f-hole is 'cello like (not scimitar).

I'm trying to find a really nice small bodied acoustic for writing & recording at the moment (a really nice one!!)..I had a fab day tuesday trawling the guitar shops of London...trying out martins, collings, lowdens, santa cruz, gibsons...and ended up totally amazed at how good guitars can...

I'm selling off a few things to save up for an acoustic guitar. I'll put them on ebay soon but thought I'd offer them to you guys first. Fender Squier Jazz (heavily customized!!) ...a cream squier jazz body from early 90's ..have been trying to remember which country it was made in but can't...

Hi Chris, can't comment on whether your tokai is kosher..but can heartily recommend Lindy Fralin vintage hots as replacement pickups..i recently installed a set in my goldstar sound and just can't get over how good they sound 8)

this may be of interest to a few people..I own a goldstar sound strat (84-ish, 50's copy)...it may be an st-40 as it had fairly cheap ceramic pups with flat poles. Anyway I took the plunge and bought a set of Lindy Fralin vintage hots from Torres Engineering in the USA (mail order as I'm in...

does anyone have any web links for dealers in japan who stock second hand tokais?
