Hi to All!!! I recently bought this Fernandes stratocaster...... The body looks to be 3 piece solid wood, am not sure if it is Alder...... http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r25/Chumpogi/Fernandes%20Stratocaster/Fernandes1.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r25/Chumpogi/Fernandes%20Stratocaster/...

Hi to all!!! After reading Deadman and Japanstrat's comments on the Daphon E20OD, i was quite curious as to how close it would get to the TS-9 sound..... Well, i searched high and low for one, but the stores were always out of stock, and no one selling 2nd hand..... Well, about a week ago, a guy pos...

HiThere.....

If I'm not mistaken, this is the same brand of guitars that has been reviewed in some issues of Guitar Buyer magazine.... Is the V100 a Les Paul style guitar, like a junior? i think it was reviewed before.... very good value guitars, so the reviews said....

Thanks a lot for all of your replies, guys.... Just reading through all the posts on this forum is like going to graduate school, i have learned a lot, and i now have a greater appreciation for all things Tokai..... I'm enjoying my Springy so much these days, what a guitar!!!! My Fender seldom gets ...

Hi there.... I do have a few acoustics in my collection.... Most are japanese: a Yamaha red label FG 150, an Aria Folk Guitar with a bolt-on neck, a Takeharu Conservarte requinto, a korean Washburn EA-10 (looks a bit like the acoustic Nuno of Extreme used in the video for their song "More Than Words...

Hi there..... I know this question was posted over a year ago, but anyway... If you go to the Vintaxe site, click on Links (far right), and then look for the heading on Japanese Guitars... There is a link there for the Yamaha site, which is in Japanese, but there are pictures and specs (in Japanese)...

Hi Guys, and a Happy New Year!!! I have the following overdrive pedals: a TS5 Iba?ez Soundtank Tubescreamer, a Russian Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi, and a Nobels ODR-1 Overdrive. The sound of the TS5 is quite close to the reissue TS9 Tubescreamer, but its not very durable, as the casing is made of p...

Hi there guys..... I keep encountering the brand "Brian" by "Bacchus".... I'm not very familiar with Bacchus as it is..... But from the pics i've seen, they seem to be nice, at least they look very nice..... Anyone out there know what the difference is? Is Brian a lower brand? Thanks, and a Happy Ne...

Very nice....

That was just straight in, no delay or echo pedals?

Schallers definitely!!!

I tried a set of Dunlops on my Gibby Les Paul once, and almost scratched the guitar on the upper non-cutaway bout.....

The Schallers are rock solid....

Happy New Year, guys!!!

A Happy New Year to All!!!

I'm GASSING for a Breezysound for 2007..... Or maybe a Love Rock....

Cheers, everyone!!!!

Thanks for the informative replys, guys.... Going by what you said, togps, the markings on my strat's body should mean it was made in October (that's 10=10, or October, batch 10, something like that eh?)..... And pre 1984..... chrisheyes, is it standard that the markings on the neck should always ma...

Hi there Omar!!! Tudor is right, there are just too many variables and details when it comes to the Love Rocks.... The fun begins when you start your research... Before i bought my Springy Sound, I read through a lot of the posts here, which are quite useful...... Good luck on your Love Rock quest!!...

Hi there.....

Great looking guitar you got there...... Strong Hendrix vibe, just looking at the pictures....
