I have a lovely 1982 Love Rock Custom that is completely stock. Although I've played for many years, I have no real experience with humbuckers outside of this gem. She sounds quite wondeful to me, but lately I've been wondering how much better she could be made to sound. So , I am appealing to...

Looking for some advice from the experts regarding my 82' Custom: Should the tailpiece height (relative to the bridge) be set high enough so that the strings clear the back of the bridge body? When I've got the bridge set at a suitable playing height, if I want the strings to clear, I have to...

Well this just drives me nuts! Just removed the pickups out of my Tokai looking for a wayward rattle (didn't find it) and got looking at the wood through a magnifying lens. Son-ofa-gun but it's got me thinking that I have a two-piece body and a one-piece top. Judging by the catalog (the one that...

Is it true that Tokai imbeds their pricing (in Yen) in their model numbers? If so, have they always done that?

Can anyone out there provide me with some basic setup information that I can use as a starting point for the setup on my Love Rock?. She's been around 30 years and I don't know how close to or how far off she might be from the original specs. I've been pretty much a Fender-guy most of my life so...

Thanks for the earlier help guys. I popped out the pickups on the weekend and although I found no writing anywhere, I'm 99.9% sure that it's a one-piece top on a one-piece body with a one-piece neck (all mahogany). Using the information found here (which has been most useful), I figure that I...

Greetings all. I am the proud new owner of (what I believe to be) an 82 Love Rock Custom. I am new to Tokais and although I've been playing many years, I'm not very knowledgeable on Les Pauls in general either. After spending some time on this site I find myself just a little confused about what...
