For Sale is my 2008 Tokai AAA Koa topped Love Rock. They are constructed with specs equivalent to the high-end LS-230 Love Rocks as told by the dealer (approx. $2300 USD list).
Here are the basic specs:
Made in Japan 2008
Two piece AAA Koa solid top
Solid one piece mahogany back
Solid one piece mahogany neck
Rosewood fingerboard w/ aged inlays
Vintage MK2 pickups - Currently has WCR Icebuckers Zebra bobbins as shown (these are $385/set new)
Gotoh Vintage style tuners
TOM style bridge w/ Aluminum tailpiece
Nitrocellulous lacquer finish
Standard Les Paul style controls/CTS pots/Switchcraft switch
Sprague Orange Drop caps
Comes w/ newish Gibson gig bag
Has one minor "bump" on back as delivered from dealer, otherwise near mint condition
NO fret wear
Weighs 8.8 lbs. on my digital bathroom scale
Exceptional action and setup
Comes with uninstalled pickguard and Tokai chord
Comes with Tokai truss rod cover reinstalled, not the Gibson shown
Comes with original strap buttons reinstalled, not the strap locks shown
I'll make this available with a couple of options. First, with zebra WCR Icebuckers installed and MK2's in bag for $1275.00. Second, with NO WCR's and original MK2's reinstalled for $1125.00. These prices included shipping/insurance in CONUS only. Add $30.00 for PayPal. Otherwise, payment via US Postal Money Order. I'll substitute a nearly new black Gibson USA hardshell case for an additional $75.00.
