SICbass Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 Ooooh, that creamy off-white. Discreet would have a fit.
patpatel Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 [quote name='Quatschmacher' timestamp='1498776869' post='3327044'] What nut width do these have? [/quote] nut width is 40mm
Hutton Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 If I didn't have three precisions already I would be sorely tempted. Great bass at a great price!
silverfoxnik Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Have another 'what a beaut' type comment, and a free BUMP on me! Gorgeous looking bass, and - if it's anything in quality like the 1984 Tokai Jazz I had once - then it'll not only great, it'll sound fantastic..
nick Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 I've got a black version of this bass, same year... It's the one I've kept, after recently selling all my collection. Something special about these basses. GLWTS
Japhet Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 ^^ Same here. I'd have this in a heartbeat if I didn't already have one.
patpatel Posted July 6, 2017 Author Posted July 6, 2017 [quote name='SICbass' timestamp='1499246959' post='3330210'] Still definitely no trades? [/quote] sorry, no trades... need the cash ; )

These 80's Japan Tokai's have a superb reputation I had a bitsa once, and I'd put a set of Tokai Hardpuncher pickups in it, then sold it! Should've kept that pickup - it sounded awesome Anyhow, as has been said, the creamy off-white looks superb. I'm sure this will sell soon
TheGreek Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 Wow,,,and just about everything else that everybody has said - love what time has done to the finish.

oneinchman Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 Bought a similar configured HardPuncher from PatPatel. Great instrument and a great colleague to deal with. Free bump from my side ;-)
