Tokai goldstar sound 1984 nut question

jacksocket · May 14, 2022

Can somebody tell me the radius of the fretboard on this model and whether the nut has a flat bottom or not.
It has a thick veneer curved fretboard

AFAIK, all the Tokai vintage Fender copes are 7.25 radius. My 1980 Springy is 7.25.

The nut on my '83 Springy was flat-bottomed. I know because it wasn't glued well and slid around quite easily. You can see it's about 1.5mm out of place in this photo:

My 82 ST55 has a flat bottom nut.

The radius would be 7,25 in unless it's been refretted several times, and flat-bottomed nuts seems to be MIJ Fender copy standard, I've never seen anything else, including in Tokais.

Thank you to everybody who replied.
7.5" radius and a flat bottom nut!
