... but I must confess ... it was a little bit unfair without any closeups ...

Axeman16 · 03-13-2008, 01:57 PM

the edwards body shape looks a bit off, but sweet guitars.

rickym · 03-13-2008, 06:11 PM

They are sweet. The Tokai looks like it has the sharpest cutaway, with the Gibby second.

not 100% if this is MIJ but if there is any one out there could tell me please do so!

The 1978 Tokai Les Paul Reborn has landed. I'll probably replaced the tuners with double ring RS Guitar Works aged replacements. That would be more authentic than these Grovers. The guitar is very, very good .... and I am understating it.

hey!
heres a couple shots of my guitar,not really sure the exact brand but from what peaple have said it looks to be 1970s japanese.

It was given to me by my bros gf they didnt know if it worked or not,i just threw some strings on it and bam! had a few wiring problems but i rewired it not too long ago and it seems to be running at back to its prime.

By the way everybodys guitars are looking great!
making me consider sanding and throwing a nice fresh coat of paint on mine as the paint on it has seen better days.

I have a mid 80s Burny Korina Custom plain top. Top is plain, unstained maple, back and sides and neck are some really beautiful korina (white limba).

I prefer the flames ... although some plain tops are so sweet ...

I will take a few more when I get a second and post them. Thanks for the positive feedback... This is the first guitar that I have ever owned that I will not sell.
