TOKAI 1984 Vintage JAZZ SOUND - Sunburst with SD Bass-line Pickups £475

[Svengali235]

NOW SOLD!!! Thanks
----------------------------


Reluctant sale but needs must.

This is a very well maintained 1984 (according to the serial number check) MADE IN JAPAN, sunburst JAZZ SOUND, from the time when TOKAI were giving Fender nightmares on quality. I've played USA Fenders and I will take an early 1980s Tokai any time.

It has been upgraded with a set of Seymour Duncan BASS LINE pickups. Otherwise it is 100% original. All the electrics are fine.The neck is fast. The truss-rod works. The metal-work has remarkably little discolouration.and no rust or knackered screws. After 32 years you would expect some fret-wear and a few small dings and scratches. It has a few but it polishes up just fine. Look at the photos......


Contact me if you have any questions. More photos can be sent if you want.

I live in Warwickshire. I am looking for £475 collected or £490 couriered.

No trades please.

All the best,

Stewart

PM'd you sir.

I have an identical model from the same year and these are terrific instruments.

I'd be interested to know where you found the serial number lookup though? I've looked online & can find lots of info on Tokai guitars but very little about the basses.

Hi,

This is what I used.

I reckon it applies equally to basses and guitars.
