What's the best place to scout used MIJ guitars inside from Japan these days? Is JP Yahoo auctions along with Ishibashi still the places, or are there some other sites where to look?

Thanks in adva ...

Metric since they come with Gotoh hardware.

To my meager knowledge Tokais, and probably all MiJ guitars, have never used nothing but metric hardware.

Every once in a while I remember the existance of this forum.

Bumping, ad still relevant.

One up for Faber from here as well, I stuck the locking ABR1 and locking tailpiece studs on my Tokai recently and I'm loving them, no more rattling and parts escaping during string change. Their regul ...

Don't worry, I'm going to do the total makeover of new everything to my Burny as well, not like it's a valuable vintage or anything. However I'm still going to keep the original parts, aside from mayb ...

Yeah, I'm not expecting much from the original pickups either, the neck I have is nothing special really, the bridge pickup was replaced by a Gibson '57 Classic + by the seller I got it from, which is ...

It certainly is interesting and raises the question, however the pickup is rusty and grimy along with the rest of the original hardware on the guitar as expected from a 30-year old pickup. Course it c ...

I forgot what I wrote on the ad

Holy hell, half forgot I had this one up here 'till I set up an add at a local website.

Bumping, since I'm still looking. Any help sourcing from elsewhere on the net is also appreciated.

Interesting, I've a very similar MIC (or Taiwan?) Burny RSG-55, but mine has the traditional 3 screw TRC. Nashville-style bridge is stock in these models.

Dating MIJ guitars from pots is probably a lost cause, I've never seen any asian made guitar use any sort of pot codes on their pots. However the guitar on sale on that Reverb ad is 100% MIJ, not a ch ...

As the title says. Specifically:

#1 Later 80's Burny "bell with wings" TRC, b&w blank. As per this picture:

Thanks for the replies, '87 sounds about right and Google would agree with it as well. As such the neck PU is probably a VH-3 then. Maybe will have to source a VH-3 bridge as well.

As for liking it ...

Hey all,

Recently, I purchased a nice Burny RSG off Reverb for a good price and now I'm wondering about it's exact make and model, seller assumed first 70's and then 80's. It's features are:
