I looked at the photo again. It does say, "Make In Korea." I have a feeling this guitar is worth about $250 at best. Just a hunch.

Guys...I've found a nice looking Korean Tokai LP Goldtop relica and the seller seems willing to deal. There's no serial number on the back, but it does say, "Manufactured Under License for Tokai Gakki Ltd. Made in Korea. Serial #" (there is none, it's blank.) Also, there's no Love Rock decal on...

I just scored a '92 Greco Rock Spirits off eBay for a nice price and imported it from Japan. It kind of looks and feels like a set neck, and I have been told by the seller that it is a set neck, but there's one screw that goes through the body into the neck. What do I have here? The guitar...

Thank you for clearing that up for me. Nice demo.

So, does anyone have a clue what I have here? That's why I posted this in the first place. You guys are the experts on Tokai.

First, the truss rod cover is wrong. That's what was on there when I got the guitar. Second, the back appears to be one piece, but maybe two. It's very hard to tell. It's not more than two, I'm sure. Checking the serisal numbers, it appeared I have an '80, but maybe not. Was 2002 made in...

Serial number 0204950. The only thing on the back of the headstock is a small sticker that says Holiday Music. The previous owner said he bought it in London. I really don't care how old it is. It sounds and plays great. Had it on the gig tonight and it killed.

The truss rod nut that was on there was spinning freely. The tech I took it to, a guy I never used before, first thought the truss rod was broken. Then, he said the nut was bad, so he mistakenly replaced the broken one with a non-metric example. He was able to adjust the neck a little using...

I have tried photobucket and I'm a computer klutz, so I had a problem with it. Since then, I decided it's too much trouble to deal with, but I did take some pics tonight of the guitar. With some help, they'll get posted with help from JohnA. I'll PM you for your email address. So, the LS-150 is...

I have no idea how to post pics here, sorry. Another member posted the first for me. After doing some research here (and I should have done that in the first place), I have determined I have an LS-150. Not too shabby, I'd say. The guitar has one of the nicest flame tops I have ever seen, and...

I posted a couple weeks ago about the '80 Love Rock I picked up. I have gigged twice with the guitar and it's great, but I don't know which model I have. Is there any way to tell, anything I should be looking for? The previous owner didn't know what model it was either. Any help is appreciated...

I need a correct truss rod cover for my '80 Love Rock. A Gibson might fit, but I don't know. If anyone has one to sell, please let me know.

Thanks very much. I'm not sure which model it is at the moment. Posting pics through photobucket seems impossible for me, being computer-challenged. I've tried to figure it out. Maybe my daughter can help me. Thank you for the kind remarks about PG. That counterfeit guitars article was mine. It...

Hello...This is my second post on the forum. I'm a working guitarist and drummer who plays in two bands. I also write feature articles for Premier Guitar magazine and a few others. I just scored an '80 Love Rock that I'm picking up tomorrow; Flame top, ice tea sunburst, in almost dead mint...

Hi Guys...I'm new here. I just bought a new Love Rock LP Junior in TV Yellow. Does Tokai make this model in red as well like the old LP Juniors? I didn't see it on their website. Is this model still in production?
