I'm looking to buy an electric guitar, having owned an acoustic for a while. I've narrowed down the choice to the above two. The Gibson is cheaper (~?600 versus ~?750). I like the finish on the Tokai better, and it is new, so issues can be fixed under warranty. Would I notice much difference in the sound of the two given the same amps? (I know this sort of question has been asked before, but I didn't really find the answer.) The Tokai has polyurethane finish which is fine by me. Is the Tokai heavy?
