I want to get my hands on a particular Tokai - an old friend used to have one, and I've never seen another like it, or been able to find out what model it was... I've looked in all the old catalogs online, etc... to no avail.
Here are the facts I remember:
It's a double-cutaway (basic Strat silouette), with slab-style squared edges (like an Ibanez RG), an Ayers Rocker V double-locking trem system, and H-S-S pickup layout on a black single-layer pickguard. He bought it in 1988, but the shop owner said it had been there a while...
The logo was not Fender-ish, just a simple black script that said "Tokai ______ Series", and then "Oldies But Goodies" in a smaller decal lower down. All the hardware and tuners was black, and the headstock was pretty close to Strat-style. Maple neck, rosewood board.
That's all I remember... Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jer
