8) it doesnt matter exactly if you actually have this guitar or that guitar
to understand what is this guitar or that guitar all about. as long as you know
it and you can tell it by all your true quality. i am 37 this year and have been
playing the guitar since i was 15. have had many guitars here in japan
and there in usa over 50 easily. i had been working for the music store
around this tokyo-yokohama area for almost a decade til a few years ago.
saw million guitars and played too much. thought and studied million times
about many guitars. this is what easily happens when you work for the music
store. villager's past hundreds or so experiences are something but
working for the store for many years everyday easily exceeds everything so easy.
but thats the work and life so nothing special and what we do everyday.
there are a lot of pros in the business you know. many kinds of pros
who does a lot of good efforts to the guitar world. they do those for good
people and their guitars, not for themselves. ones who do good for himself
only are bad ones ofcourse. we aren't talking about those but good ones
ofcourse. you know good people and bad people, good things and bad things
in everywhere. i dont have any tokai guitars right now but have
about 15 american guitars including 2 historic collection les paul sunbursts.
each cost more than $9000 a piece even in the 90s. all the others are also excellent
and my good guitars really. i am kinda a hardcore guitar fan and especially
for the gibson custom shop stuff which always costs thousands of dollars
not hundreds of dollars like the used japanese guitars do. so the economy
never catches up quite when too many gibson custom shop guitars
are coming out especially lately for the past several years. however i have been
looking for some, only few good old tokais myself personally someday anytime laters so
thats me about tokai. i am pretty picky for my kind of the guitars so
unless i meet mine exactly i dont get em. since they are mostly all used
already so thats another reason not to be rush. it takes a long time to
meet our ideal guitars u know. anyways some little stories of mine here.
about togps. maybe a bit too much but i was talking something there
about something we know off the forum, not on the forum. or on the
forum often? anyways those who know what it was about know what.....
i have several deep buddys from this forum and we all know those things.
and i guess more know too. dont worry i am basically leaving here soon
just staying here for my last time to leave some good useful infos for
good people here. so let go now. its ok. sorry for som fuss sometimes.
i had to be honest and those here who are honest know how i felt
i guess......like how tokai made it........."quality before quantity"........
right? maybe "truth before BS"?...............j
