Was there a question?

Sorry, just wondering what the difference between my st50 and a st60 were? Thanks

 

[Sigmania]

Oh. ST50 has U pickups, ST60 has E pickups.

Hardware, neck shape, body, finish, etc. are the same up until 1983.

That is the listing 3 years ago.

That's not an ST60. It's an ST50. U pickups.

Something must have been changed at some time.

Yep

Neck and body codes different

60 neck on a 50 body?

Looks like 5=1 bb in the body and 7=1 on the neck.

 

[Sigmania]

From a distance the solder looked good so I was thinking the pickups go with that body.

Maybe somebody did a neck swap?

I will note the zip ties on the pickup leads. Originally Tokai used twist ties.

If I get it for the price I offered it will be worth it to me. 400 is worth a gamble.

I did notice the zip ties. Both of mine have the bread ties.

The seller is completely lost when it comes to guitars. If anything was changed it was before they owned it. I was told it has been in storage for awhile. In a case non original.
