Back in May 2003 I purchased a Tokai Goldstar Strat from Songbird Music in Toronto before they closed their doors. It was labelled as a "Made in Japan" 57 Reissue. However it doesn't have any markings to identify it. No serial number, no model number. I haven't taken it apart because I dont...

I was reading the earlier posting about the Chinese 335 Dillion/Tokai. I decided to look at my Tokai Love Rock I bought last year....and there is no serial number to be seen on it ...and it does not have a Made in Korea or Made in Japan stamp. Did I get myself a fake? I think I bought a ****...

I've noticed three ebayers in Canada all have cheap Mahogony 355 copies on ebay at the same time. I think two are from the same dealer using different names but I could be wrong. Does anyone know anything about these guitars and why they are so cheap - around $200 Canadian?

I'm not affiliated with Mike, however he seems to have some decent prices on a few Tokais. Anyone in the market might want to look into these. http://www.myrareguitars.com/tokainewmodels.html

About 2 years ago I bought a strat copy at SongBird Music in Toronto - they specialize in used guitars. They had the guitar labelled as a made in Japan Tokai. At the time they had three of them. I picked up a sunburst model. Since then I've been looking at it and the only thing on this...

Not sure why I didn't look into this more closely a year ago....but last May I purchased a Tokai Goldstar Strat from Songbird Music in Toronto. They had it listed as a Japanese Made Strat...and it was one of three being sold for $579 Canadian, regularly sold at over $800. If any of you are...

Did Gibson get to Tokai and force them into additional changes. The horn on this thing is ugly ...headstock also. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2384&item=3728211775

Just picked one of these up - brand new and only paid $349.99 Canadian...which I think is a steal. Came with a very nice gig bag - much nicer than ones I've paid decent coin for, so for 349.99, I was very impressed. Now the better news...this guitar kicks some serious butt. Awesome sound and...

Hello - I know this is based on personal preference, but what would be the best strings for a Les Paul copy?

I was just surfing around on ebay and stumbled upon the following Dillion 355 copy: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2368689490&category=2384 It blew me away because it is almost identical to a Tokai ES-60 that I purchased on ebay earlier in the year. This is the one I...

Here it is: http://www.songbirdmusic.com/torasp/odetail.asp?id=5360 Actually got it last May. Finally pulled it out of hiding on Christmas Eve. Waited seven months to finally play it. Pretty sweet. Paid $519.00 Canadian - not sure if that was too high or not.

OK...I own a Tokai strat copy and am now looking at a new 335 copy. However the pricing of the Tokai's are getting outrageous, and unfortunately I am starting to look at getting an Epiphone. Question...are the Tokai's THAT much better than the Epi's? Could I live with an Epi, or should I save...

Well its July 1st .....54 days ago I purchased a nice Tokai Strat....and its still hidden in my closet ! Can't dare take it out or the better half will kill me. Only 6 more months till Christmas !

I recently bought a Dillion DLP675 from a Canadian dealer. This model is not sold in the U.S. and according to the seller is of a better quality than those sold on the Dillion website based in the U.S. From what I know, they are built in Korea and have a great reputation. My guitar teacher...

I've noticed on some guitar auctions on ebay that the sellers explicitly say that they will not sell to anyone from Indonesia. Not that I live there or care to, but I was wondering why there is an aversion to Indonesian buyers. Do they have a bad reputation? just wondering.....

I picked up a Tokai on Thursday from songbirdmusic in Toronto. THey have them on their website ...on sale reg. $865 on for $519. They are advertised as Japanese GoldStars, however I am a little worried that it might be the lesser model from Korea. They aren't any serial numbers anywhere on...

I was just wondering what a Tokai AST33 is worth, in CAN or US dollars. Any information is appreciated. I have a lead on a new one and I think I am ready to pull the trigger. Just have to store it somewhere so the wife doesn't catch me !

Hello, I am brand new to the forum, and its my first posting ! I have read a fair bit about Tokai guitars, but was wondering if Tokai continues to make a replica/copy of the Fender Stratocaster. Thanks for any information.
