Does Tokai offer a 'clownburst'?

[Coolguy]

I was wondering if Tokai offered a very very defined cherryburst on a high end maple topped LS model?

What I mean by clownburst: cherry burst with the edges very redish & clearly seperated from the inner colour.

Something like Dave Meniketti's old LP.
The edges look much redder in real life.

Ah Yes, the infamous clownbursts.

Many of the old LS120s were clownbursts, I have one (1981) and there's one on eBay right now.

This is a recent LS-150. Not super red but I think it qualifies:

Niiiiiiiiiiiice.

Is that yours, Wulfie? Very nice 8)

 

[wulfman]

Yes Marcus, it is one of mine. I got it barely used at a decent price. It is a good weight and the Tokai MKII pickups are actually pretty good IMO.

Real nice... mine is kind of red too for a VF model. The MKII pickups are nice, aren't they? Bought a set on eBay that are just waiting to go into something.

Here's mine.

LS120 '81.

Dave Meniketti's, there's a name I haven't heared in a while, Y&T are a great band, they are still gigging and Dave's playing is as great as ever!
