Carbon Fiber & FRP

M・A・T is a future-ready advanced electric guitar that uses carbon fiber and FRP. New sounds from Tokai

Carbon Fiber:
Carbon fiber is stronger than piano wire or steel and does not deteriorate over time. It features high vibration absorption and clear sound. The coefficient of friction is small and finger work is smooth. It is also revolutionary in terms of playability, as it has a small specific gravity, is light, and is easy to balance. Please check out Tokai's new reach, the amazing expressiveness of carbon fiber's material properties.

FRP:
Abbreviation for Fiber Reinforced Plastics. The FRP body has excellent impact resistance, heat resistance, moisture resistance, and chemical resistance, and overcomes defects such as thinning and slight irregularities that cannot be avoided with a wood body.The FRP body has a powerful and sharp feel that will last even after long-term use.

Please check out Tokai's new sound that is compatible with the material revolution of electric guitars and the future music scene.
