Thank you fella's Yes the before pics from the seller in Japan had the speed knobs, original knobs in the case, i decided to put the reflector gold tops on and change pups to the sd's while i was at it for a more authentic look, love this Tokai so much its my daily player

Love this guitar, which I have owned for a year now, and thought i would share this beauty of the burst, solid flame top, faded VF I have upgraded with SD Antiquities and 60's knobs, I have kept the original DiMarzio PAF and knobs. Before After

Hello, if you are interested i have a BST-64V in the BGM colour with a low serial number 002xxx, there was a member here who was wanting a guitar like that, and wondered if it ever exists, well... it does. The frets are about 80-90% but needs a fret dress (it get's played) parts missing are the...

also of interest the hardware parts are chrome, whereas the st-80 is appointed with nickel plated parts.

Great info Peter, Beautiful flamed top on that one too.

well, whatever floats your boat That is to say, folks can change, it's the way things are. I have MIJ and some American gear. I am selling all my low end MIJ in favour of high end MIJ, it's just the feel, smell, sound, etc that appeals to me more about them. However some rare MIJ are still...

Is the truss rod adjuster the hex allen type or slotted screw type? looks to be hex type, which indicates pre 1982 to me. Seems the changover is either 1980 or 1981 to cross slotted screw type? A 1981 model maybe right?

That is a beauty!

Hi k01 = Goldie ST-50 k02 = R9 with toneriders k03 = R9 with toneriders k04 = Springy ST-100

Hi, would expect the pickups to be quality Maxon U-2000, which would likely have a date stamp on the back of 6 digits, and i too would like to know how heavy she is, thank you!

hi, looks like some changed parts? usually expect to see the TOKAI stamp on the brass bridge plate, maybe in 78 it was not there? I have not seen another 78 TE85. the missing stamp on the fretboard could also be a 1978 spec, but this one has the wider neck plate with serial, so would expect a...

It's a nice guitar, EG-700 from September 79, is actually a copy or duplicate of the norlin era guitars gibson made, the sellers comments cracked me up after reading Greco were one of the Japanese companies (Tokai was another) that cashed in on the poor quality of US-built F*nd*rs and G*bs*ns in...

But i have never seen Dry 1982 with the Dry-H type cover, till now. nice score whover won.

Hi I have them in my TRH-120 they are called Dry-H, they are okay, they are just not in the Dry Z or Dry 82's ball park as they are just a bit below par in clarity, IMHO, but the guitar has it's own feel and sound and so on....i still enjoy it 8)

Thank you Peter
