    Sorry for the late reply and thank you for your replies. I have more question before I pull the trigger. How does the consumption tax part work? If the guitar is $850 (for simplicity), do they deduct the (I think) 8% making the guitar (roughly) $787? Or would I just pay $850 because the...

    5 months. Wow, that's quite a wait. Makes me wonder if, considering the price difference and wait time, an LC122 would do me just as well. As far as the tariff goes, that is good to know.

    Hopefully I'll be ordering in the next 2 weeks. I figure about $1800 will cover everything including the import tariff, which I'm hoping I'll get lucky and not have to pay. I might be reading some of the translations wrong, because they really are just awful, but it feels like some of them...

    Well, I am officially deadset on the 215, so now I just need to figure out where to buy from. http://store.shopping.yahoo.co.jp/rockin-daddy/tokai-lc215-wr.html This is the best price that I have found online, but I am not sure if they ship stateside...

    Well said Johny. I read an earlier post about the SG196 (I think) and someone said the same thing. I am going to definitely get the LC 215. To me, dollar for dollar, it's worth it. I love ebony and hate regret, so Its Win-Win!

    Alright. That's making me feel pretty optimistic. What brand or product line is the Tokai Premium line comparable to in build quality? Just so i can have some sort of reference point.

    I am from the San Antonio area. I just noticed that I didn't put a specific city, so I edited my profile to show that. That's why I'm here. I want as much information as I can get before I make a blind commitment. If the guitar is worth it, it's worth it.

    Hello everyone. This is my first post and I would like to say thank you for welcoming me into this forum. I am unfamiliar with the Japanese guitar market and am hoping I can get some guidance. I have been looking at reviews and scouring the internet for information, but I cannot find anything...
