Aussie Tokai Newsflash..!!!

Ozeshin · Jul 24, 2007

I was talking with my Tokai dealer today and he told me that a shipment of Strat/Tele/P-Bass has been booked to arrive in Australia.
This is a big deal for us considering that up til now Fender Australia has run interference every step of the way.
I've been told that the concession was that they would have the modified headstocks.
I haven't seen these...anyone own one with the modified headstock?....
If so can u put a pic or two up?

Why don't you ask your Tokai dealer for pics?

Ozeshin · Jul 24, 2007

Coz it's supposededly a hush hush deal...no pics...no brochures

Is it just me, or does anyone else see four guitars having group sex in that pic?

I saw pictures of it on a French speaking forum, where this model first broke cover, a couple of weeks ago. 8)
I will see what I can rustle up

What do you think? This is a raw, unpainted pic. Should be available in AST50 Colours.

That scratchplate just looks sooooo wrong

So that's what they'll look like?...Eeewwww

It is not a cheap trem. It is the Wilkinson VS100 made by Gotoh.

Here a pic; painted..

Oh dear....

Is that a square edged hole cut in the scratchplate for the pickups?

As someone might have said to Captain Kirk - "It's a Strat Jim, but not as we know it." :lol:

togps · Jul 25, 2007

Stratiman, how about the head stock shape?

Anonymous · Jul 25, 2007

Exactly, how about the headstock shape?

Not good.....

togps · Jul 25, 2007

.. and the body shape?

I'm not sure what you want me to say! I assume you like this guitar? I don't.
