Hi guys. I'm thinking about buying this guitar: http://s879.photobucket.com/albums/ab352/stratfan/ I want to be sure that it's not a fake, and that it has the correct markings etc before I make an offer. Any help or advice on what to look for will be greatly appreciated, I'm thinking about...

Hi guys. I just received my brand new Fender Japan 57DMC-VSP, two tone sunburst, Stratocaster, and I am thinking about hanging it on a wall when not in use. A friend at work read the Japanese warning label that came with the guitar, and it says that the guitar should not be kept in the case...

Does anyone know of a way to tell which JV Fender Strats are currently made by Tokai? If so please post info. If not, which are the comparable quality Fenders that are currently on sale in Japan that equate to an ST-80 or better? Thanks for the time...

Hi Guys. Does anyone know a way for US-based buyers to get their hands on brand-new CIJ Fenders? I have seen lots of used ones on Craigslist, "MIJ, CIJ, basswood, alder, ash, USA pickups, Texas Special pickups", who knows what they are really selling? So I have had the realization that...

Hi Guys, while cruising craigslist I saw this ad for a Korean made Tokai. As you can see it has 3 control knobs, and the lead plugs into the front of the body like a regular strat. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/msg/1315463691.html I thought that Tokai had given up making exact copies of...

I have read several opinions, on the various merits of JF as a guitarist, on this forum, and I would like to point out this video from the UK TV show "Later". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1W7VyOOdUrY For me, there is little doubt that this guy is a pretty **** good guitarist. Any thoughts?

Hi guys, With the spate of recent Tokais for sale on Ebay, Craigslist, etc, how would a buyer discern which model is actually for up sale? For example, I have a new LS 150 which I got from Richtone, so no worries there. However, there are no model specific markings on the guitar or neck. So...

Forgive the ignorance, but what are the differences between Tokai Les Paul Custom models and Les Paul Standard models? I thought that the main difference was the customs coming in solid colours, and maybe having better appointments. Awaiting replies from better informed minds... :wink:

OK, here's my problem: There are quite a few VERY MINOR scratches / scuff marks on the back of my brand new LS150. Rich has kindly given me some cash to buy a polish or scratch remover, so does anyone out there have a good idea of what will work best to get them out? I have heard of a website...

Hi guys. I recently posted that I have bought a new LS150, and I am aware that it has a nitro cellulose finish, and that is the extent of my knowledge on the nitro. Can anyone shed light on the precautions that need to be taken with a nitro finished guitar? Also, what are the products /...

Hi Guys. I'm finally about to get a new LS150, in HDC, from Richtone, and it will be shipped to the USA next week sometime. Has anyone out there had a NEW guitar shipped into the US? What, if any was the import / sales tax rate? How was it collected? I know that the UK LSs have the dimple...

Hi guys, sorry for being a total boob, but can anyone explain the difference between the current Tokai LS models and the LC models? (':o') I was looking at the Richtone website, and like the look of the LS85, and the LC85, which is the better buy? :o
