This is the only other one of these that I have run across (other than mine which I've had since 2002). There is not much info available on this one that I can find, I think it was maybe one of the first Korean built (TKM either stands for Tokai Korea Model or Tokai Kalamazoo Model, I suspect the former). There are no serial numbers anywhere. Mine has been a fine guitar, extensively gigged with, and has a great tone. I doubt that it would be a great investment as the Japanese ones are the ones to go for, but mine looks great, and sounds great and I couldn't have been happier with it.
 
Thanks vaporboy. the seller is asking a tad much. but she does look extremely clean. i'm not looking for an inverstement but a player for the nefew.
 
Hey Alain, nice to see you over here. :) I'm sure your nephew would love this guitar and actually $550.00 isn't a bad price at all for a Korean made Tokai, although I think if you talked to the guy you could be able to knock it down to around $500.00 which seems a little more reasonable. Good luck.

Don<t know who you are..but HYE...a fellow canadien..LOL
 
That's really not a bad price, I think I paid $450 back in '02 so if it's in really good shape it may be worth it. I think the TKM's are very few in number, you almost never see them so one day who knows?
