    Greco Guitars vs Tokai Guitars - Can they be mistaken?

    I recently sold a late 70's TSB Greco LP (to finance an ebony Reborn Old!). The quality was about 90% that of my three Reborn Old LS-50s and my '82 Love Rock LS-50, I'd estimate. It played nearly as well as the Tokais, I thought; great neck, very fun, very hard to put down! Heavier than my...

    Tokai vs. Dillion vs. Everest

    I had a Dillion Les Paul for a few months. It played like a dream and was extremely well made. It did have a few cheap parts, like the 3-way switch, but the craftsmanship was quite excellent. Considering that I paid $300 for it, mint with a new hard shell case, it was an incredible buy. I...

I have Seymour Duncan '59s in it now and the tone is just a slice of heaven. I'd never sell it. I don't know how it compares to a...
