    Tokai HP VSB-60 Bass?

    Thanks to you all! I think I got an answer to what I was wondering. One year in production cannot be that many copies in the whole world. Nice basses all three OF, CS and VF!

    Tokai HP VSB-60 Bass?

    Ok! Thanks! If you have more information please tell me more about till VSB-basses. It looks like the original VSB came in both 60 and 80 so the difference is perhaps the same as the PB60 PB80 (+ two pickups/one). One piece body, reverse-tuners? etc. When did the stop manufacturing the VSB...

    Tokai HP VSB-60 Bass?

    Ok! Looks like a tele with belly cut and bindings. This lovely one has the "Hard Puncher" under the logo. There seem to be quite a few variants! https://i.imgur.com/c2kgqkV.jpg http://www.tokaiforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=15014&p=191166&hilit=vsb+60#p191166

    Tokai HP VSB-60 Bass?

    Hi! Thanks for your information! I can not read the information in this folder but have seen some VSB-60 in same body color as the VSB-80. The other colors seems to be more rare, as well as the the models with rosewood-neck? WR, OF, CS and VF - what colors are those?

    Tokai HP VSB-60 Bass?

    Hi! Do you have information about the Tokai VSB-60? Looks like it is was a "limited product" from the 1982 catalogue but in production already 1981? What I have seen it looks like this model has two types of the head (or three include the "Aria"-head)? For how long time was this model...

    Tokai Hard Puncher PB80 Date?

    I will check the lacquer again some day! :) But something interesting about the tuners is that I have got a photo sent on the tuners on my PB80, reverse, but do not have the hex screw in the bottom/end of the shaft. The tuners looks the same as the Jazz Sound tuners. Here is the tuners in the...

    Tokai Hard Puncher PB80 Date?

    Yes, maybe (perhaps) but I am not 100% sure because I got no reaction when I test the lacquer. And I normaly do not have my basses at home so I can not check the tuners on the other PB80 bass now, but the picture I have says there is an other type of tuners, but it may be because it is a...

    Tokai Hard Puncher PB80 Date?

    Ok! Yes, the pickups are changed. The old ones are dead and need a new wiring. What do you mean if tuners have a tension screw? How does this screw looks like? Best,

    Tokai Hard Puncher PB80 Date?

    Hi again! I have found another Hard Puncher and bought it for backup for the PB80. The price was low so I bought the bass without seeing it. The seller says he think it was the lowest modell and had play it for years. Ok for me for a backup bass. I did not expect so much, but it is a lovely...
