cherryburst
Well-known member
Hi Guys - I'm new to the forum and need some help.
Whilst shopping for a back-up guitar for my Les Paul, I fell in love with a Tokai Love Rock and so far it has surpassed all expectations. I have always known that Tokais punch above their weight but this guitar is sweeter than many Gibsons I have owned or played.
Anyway, can you help me tell which model I have? The impressed serial # is 05094xx, "Made in Japan" inked on back of headstock, it's a cherry sunburst flametop (veneer? looks amazing if it is), ABR-1 style bridge, 2 humbuckers, Kluson style tuners, trapezoid inlays, sandwich body - in fact from a distance it looks like a Les Paul R9. Price was approx. ?600.
Apart from the model, can you guys confirm some specs? i.e. type of pickups, contstruction of body/top (type of woods used) etc. Thanks!
