This guitar is a beauty! with the classic line and style of one of the top Japanese designer/makers.
There are some small dings and a larger chip 'south' of the bridge; she belonged to a frontman / lead in a band from Berlin. Faber Guitars, put it down to his exhuberance. The blemish is superficial, but it still looks good and sounds great with that distinctive Tokai presence.
The pick-ups are Tokai's own original ST Hots, and very raunchy they are too.
The Guitar was made by Tokai Gakki Co. Ltd. in Hamamatsu, just outside Tokyo, Japan: and sold to me by Faber Guitars of Aalen, Germany: Tokai Distributors (Certification)
