There's a nice history and story behind Tokai guitars. This Japanese guitar company gained popularity back in the mid 80's / early 90's when -according to many players around the world- both Fender and Gibson living up to their reputation; guitarists found strong alternatives in company's like Ibanez, Yamaha and...Tokai.
For years, Tokai wasn't imported back into Europe and so the instruments disappeared off the radar which made them collectable and iconic as many guitar players still know the extraordinary quality of the guitars.
And Tokai has actually continued to live up to that reputation! Just check out the relative hi-end specs of this Chinese made SG58; 3-piece mahogany body, one-piece set maple neck, carbonized Jatoba fingerboard with 12" radius, Tune-o-Matic bridge, Tokai high output humbuckers, 2 volume and 2 tone controls. That, at this price point, is pretty impressive! This one gives you all the bite, directness and rock 'n roll you'd expect from an SG-style guitar! So good!
Gigbag or case not included.
