Hi everyone,

Recent convert to Tokai and how wonderful their guitars are (will post a NGD thread shortly), so much so that I’m looking to purchase another.

I’m looking at either an LC230 or LC260, but I’m wanting to swap the hardware out to nickel. Just prefer the nickel/chrome look on a Les Paul Custom and already have a singlecut with gold.

The problem I’m having though is trying to work out what hardware these models actually ship with so I can get a direct replacement. The info pages just state ‘ HLS-VB(Brass Saddle)Bridge HLS-VT Aluminum TailPiece’, rather than Gotoh etc and then there’s the issue of exact measurements.

Does anyone know what parts will be a direct swap?

Modifying the body isn’t an option for me as I wouldn’t feel up to it myself and there’s only one tech within miles of me and he’s a hack who’s butchered new high end instruments in the past.

Grateful for any help!
