Someone I know after selling this - has asked me what it is / value etc and I'm not sure!!
Obviously some sort of generic Jazz copy, quite good quality too. Tinted gloss neck, matching headstock,chrome knobs and finger rest!!
No clues on it as to origin,brand name etc. Have cleaned it up and its in pretty good nick, plays and sounds fine.
Any thoughts/opinions/ideas of what it may be worth etc. more than welcome - many thanks.

It's one of those generic Chinese jobbies, Rockers in Denmark Street used to have a boatload of them badged as 'Rockers' but they turn up all over the place.

Actually pretty good VFM when set up, but you're not going to be able to retire on the proceeds! Probably valued at about £100-125?

Cheers,
James

Remember seeing something like this in Music Ground in Leeds a few years ago which would tie in with your info.
Thanks !

is that it?[/quote]

Actually it does look like this too! However, no logo so maybe/probably not.
(Cant see it being worth £295 new either TBH! )
Thanks for the info, cheers.

No - it would say "Tokai" on it if it was.

Moos3h is right - it's just a no-brand far-eastern copy, clearly a perfectly decent Jazz but it will have originated from one of any number of guitar factories with unpronounceable names in China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia etc. It's not an anything!

He's right about the value too - that's about £100's worth.

Jon.
