I've got the Epi Pro and its really nice.

I have a Tokai Thunderbird. I did consider the Epi Thunderbird Pro, but I don't like a thin neck (the Tokai is about half way between a P and a J) and I'm not sure that active electronics belong in a Thunderbird

I like my epiphone - 'limited edition' alpine white t-bird.

I wouldn't hesitate to get a Tokai. The shop I work at stocks them and they're quality instruments. There's some corking Epis out there, but IME they don't measure up.

I've got EMGs in mine, and it sounds absolutely incredible.

Look up the Thunderbird Pro on Thomann - There're some sound samples there with some of the basses. Now compare it to the standard T-Bird passive sound sample. There's your answer

Tokai with EMG's
now that sounds proper
