As part of trying to date my Breezy, I have been checking up on the truss rod adjusters that Tokai used in their Strats & Teles in the 80s. At some point they changed from a hex adjuster to a cross head adjuster, but when?
I have checked out 3 guitars I know are from 1980, & they all have the hex type:
I have checked out several Goldstars from 1984/85, and they all have the cross head type:
So when did they change? Well, 1981, 82 or 83, I would assume. Could owners of Springys & Breezys from 1981, 82 or 83 (& block decal Goldstars from late 1983) please let us know which type of adjuster they have? We should be able to narrow it down this way.
The block decal guitars would be a good place to start, as we know these are from 1983, so if you have a block decal Springy or Goldie, please let us know - hex or cross head?
