Tokai MAT Stratocaster

[hetfield_2k2]

Can someone confirm if I have a Tokai MAT Stratocaster M1201? I thought at first it was an M802...

How much would this cost?

Hi Hetfield,

What you have here is an M-601 SWR.
The difference is in the neck not being Graphite which both the M-80x and M120x both have.
The graphite necks also had ebony fingerboards - not rosewood.
It does have the active electronics of the higher models though.
Brand new it would have cost 60,000yen retail.
