That's very interesting. It's got proper tuners and the rear pickup is in the 70s position. Nice inlay too. There's been some dodgy 70s Fender clones on this forum but this looks like the real deal.

Good luck with the sale.

Wahhhh it drives me bonkers when I accidentally subscribe to your fs threads and you bump them like 50 times a day with the same quote over and over. Calm down mate.

I believe 'Tempest' was a Tokai imprint.

[Rammsteinbrit]

I believe that children are the future, have a bump for the bass I want!

[/quote]interesting - although I've not seen one like this before. Mother of pearl block inlays without the binding. Quite unusual.
it feels like quality I have to say

[/quote] interesting, my guesses were leading towards tokai but had no proof. Looks great nevertheless
