Your first link gives you the answer, It was "ACTIVE MUSICAL PRODUCTS LTD", that commissioned the fake Tokai's.
Then I admitted my mistake and posted the correct one. I will do so again. Click the link to "New love rocks".

As to the rest, you're on a brand new account and you don't have those emails any more so I have no idea if you are who you say you are, just like Oze.
Look, I admit I've taken this one a bit personally but here are my two problems. One, the subject at hand - a lot of misinformation and doubt created for no good reason. The guitar is a Japanese NLC70S, clear as day. The only reason anyone had to doubt that is Oze, who has come in here, talked s*** about the members here, styled himself and some sort of retuning rockstar and fallen flat on his face, but after that entrance can't admit it so got his friend in to create more confusion. He's caused the very problem he waltzed in to solve and it would be nice if we could all just learn something and move on, everyone feeling a little wiser.
Jesus mate, you need to lay off the conspiracy theories, I actually do know Oze, but haven't spoken to him in years, I don't care what you choose to believe. As you've said, they are your problems, not mine. I was talking about Mikes music, Not Active, it was Active that commissioned the builds, Not built to order for Mikes, or that Mikes thought the guitars were made by Tokai, thats how I was led to understand the problem, I don't have the emails any more because it WAS A LONG TIME AGO, I have at least 2 or 3 computers since then and no longer have the email account that was used, I saved pics but that about it,{i'd have to dige deep to find them as again, I haven't even thought about this for years}, most of the rest I posted here, again years ago.. I am a straight shooter , you may be easily influenced, or hang with people that are, anyone that knows me, and there are members here that do really well, know this, I don't hold anyone's hand, Oze may have done what he did, but thats not why I decided to reply here, He's a big boy, he can handle his own problems. As i've stated, I did a hell of a lot of investigation into these fakes, had literally 100's of pictures, and contributed to another site heavily regarding this topic/problem, I spoke to as many people involved as I could, first hand, No heresay. You can go on half cocked about Oze all you like, It has NOTHING to do with anything I've stated, or me at all. You've still not provided a link showing the headstock of the guitar here in question, It may well be a Japanese model, I'd rather wait till Tokai responds than take your word, its as simple as that... If you knew as much as you think you do, you'd know who I am and my old sign in, I didn't come back to be a long time contributor, I was asked to add to the conversation by another member, NOT OZE, Just to add some info here. If the guitar turns out to be authentic then great, I really couldn't give a **** and I'll be happy for the buyer...
