I've had several fakers. This one is a vintage Japanese one next to a real '78 Ric. This one is UK made; I bought it barebones and put the bits on myself.. This is a selection of fakers I had at some point in time (the black and blue ones are gone). The "Red Baron" is a Retrovibe Renegade (update: it's now gone too), the "Rickenberger" is a confused tribute to Rush and/or Darren Redick (he had a fur-covered Spirit); the cream/brass and burgundy 5-string are works in progress.

Beware that the "Tokai" in Rockinbetter is actually Tokai UK (an importer in Sheffield) and not the Japanese Tokai Gakki company, which is known for producing high quality guitars. (Looks like this caveat was already posted.)

Ever thought of a buzzid?

Let's see if any get caught out.

Thankfully nobody's crossed the boundary yet.

I love it! 🙂

More like Oreful!

So this is its second innings then?

As soon as I see Cologne, I know there's going to be a bad smell about it.

I didn't like the bridge stranded half-way up the body...

Apparently it's a Squire... ...dunno why people can't read what it says on the headstock!

@Jabba_the_gut's creations are fine things!

There’s some great bass playing in Deep Purple.

That neck pocket...
