    Gibson Japan No More?

    Yes, but not with the open book headstock, it must be like a bad joke for customers in Japan. In Europe we are used to this strange look of the Epiphone Headstock, though it seems most people don't like it. Crazy, look at the headstock...

    Elitist?

    Hello guys, I've heard that Gibson/Epiphone (Fuji...) had to change the name Elite after a conflict with Ovation to Elitist. It should be the same quality, it is only about the name. Beside that, I am more than happy with my LP Goldtop and SG 61 reissue. Compared to a Gibson LP Studio and a...

    WTB Tokai SG

    thanks for providing me with so many valuable information. I made the decision to order something different, an Epiphone Elitist 61 reissue, it was just too allurend to have a new one to play in myself. Another point was, that it has the open book headstock, which is only available in the...

    KORENA

    Hey Boris, are you sure that this is the colour Korina or the wood? I don't expect a korean made instrument to be built of Korina. So, a SG45(43 or 48???) is available only in red? The sg-48 is the lefthand version I have to admit that I havn't found a black Tokai Korea SG (SG43/48 ) on the...

    WTB Tokai SG

    Hallo Hans-J?rgen, thanks for the hints and you are right (off course...) :wink: , but I found that it is no good time to look for a Tokai SG overseas. The transatlantic models wear this different headstock and in Japan the market is sold out. I found 2 (two) SG on the japan guitar link. My...
