Is this a 320? Looks like a dark FB to me (Jacaranda ). But I hear other saying Jacaranda translates to something else in Japanese. And is not actually Jacaranda but Brazilian. Anyways it clearly does not look like Ebony to me. Wondering if the seller is trying to pass off a 200 as a 320.

The reason I say this is it does not looks like it has fret edge binding (NIBS). Yeah, I know the 2nd pic below sort of looks like NIBS but the other pics do not. Really hard to tell. I could be totally wrong. I asked the seller for more pics and cavity shots etc. It does not have the pickguard drilled and it looks like they just did this on the 320 (would not drill it) and not the 200 but you could order anything custom from Tokai so who knows. It does looks like a really nice AAAA top. But could that also be ordered for a 200 custom? I know Tokai does weird stuff on custom orders. I actually have placed a custom order with Tokai before for a breezy. I order so much extra custom stuff SEB, nitro tuners bridge etc. They kept the model number the same though. I would have though with all the upgrades the number would have doubled or tripped.
The thing that is funny is the guitar is 60 miles away from me. So I can easily drive over there and see it. But I do not want to waste my time if it is a 200. And do not want to spend 320 money on a 200 either.
