    Tokai 1982-4 Goldstar

    I have been a full time pro guitar teacher since 2002 and picked up this Goldstar when I was in the market for a Fender USA Strat. Just happened to be there on the shelf of a store in Trowbridge and when I played it is just came alive - one of those guitars that you know is going to be great...

    Pickup Change

    I posted a comment, more to myself than anyone else, a few days ago when I was considering selling my 1984 Goldstar Sunburst - but I just can't get around to actually selling this guitar. It's so nice in terms of how it feel and plays, and the general sound of it suggests that I should be...

    2 Gold Stars in One Store!

    I was on the look-out for a couple of secondhand Squires for students when I came across a Tokai. Knowing these were something special - around these parts they were the axe of choice in the early eighties when Fender had forgotten what business they wanted to be in - I took one off the wall...
