MIK because the bridge is not ABR-1 but Nashville style.
I guess somebody changed the TRC from 3-screw to 2-screw.

Actually, if I did ever buy from a seller who sells those, I would say

Fakai... Tokaphone....
From the top, heading down:-
Tokai and Love Rock model too bold (could be the pic)
Love Rock Model not "straight up"
2 Screw TRC
Stamped Serial Number
Binding on body almost looks white, not cream
No felt wshers under strap pins
Pickups should have covers
Screws in pickup rings round heads, not countersunk
Pickup adjusting screw heads too big
Control cavity and knobs off axis
Vol & Tone knobs wrong
:roll:

And the bridge is all wrong..........check the height adjusters, that type of bridge is a typical feature of a counterfeit les paul from china.

I'm in the same boat.....the Love Rock I bought 2 yrs ago from SongBird Music in Toronto has no serial number on it.
Guess I got duped ...and Songbird Music has gone bellyup !

No, I checked on here before I bought it, & I was told that the MIK Love Rocks didn't have serial numbers. Are people changing their mind now? This is mine:

Korean Tokais bought the official UK distributor did not have any serial numbers on them what so ever.
Interestingly enough - The latest batch of Chinese tokai have changed their serial code format - no longer starts with FC.
