Hi everyone. I bought this Breezysound from a very reputable dealer here in Ontario back in 2002. At the time he was selling both Goldstar and Breezy Sound guitars. There was certainly a big price difference and a noticable difference in quality between the 2. Unfortunately there are no markings on it at all that would identify it as MIJ and I was hoping someone could help. All I could find was a "3 8" or possibly "8 E" under the neck pickup. I have the original pups and there's nothing on them either. :)

What year or era was it represented as? That would help I think, along with the serial number.

The neck is likely to be legit because of the unique headstock. I can't see anyone copying that funny shape, but I could be wrong.
 
I bought it brand new so I would say a 2002 or possibly 2001. I personally have no doubt that it's MIJ but I sure can't see any way of proving it :lol:

No serial numbers or anything although I don't believe that's unusual for the later models.

Just got a reply from Tokai, I must say they were very quick in responding.

Dear Dave,

"38" was our production number at that time.
Your guitar was made in October, 2001.

It was made at our factory in Hamamatsu, Japan

Best regards,

So, good news. :D

Well I've been here since I bought it in 2002 but I just never post :D

It's actually up for sale as I'm hoping to get enough money together to grab a Tokai LP.
