Wow! I'm speechless-nearly! Down south around Atlanta, Georgia- we never see Tokai's except maybe 1-2 at a guitar show. In finding this web site, and researching around a bit- I decided to "bag" one, and just got my gorgeous 1992 LS65 today from Chicago. It weighs 8.25lbs- and yes gang- it has a Gibson 1960 Classic-thin profile neck. I have a 1960 Les Paul Historic, and the Tokai neck is even smaller- a dream to play! Top grade dark rosewood, with a lemon burst top as nice as any $3300+ Gibson! Got her for $625 including shipping. I'm a real happy camper, and will never waste $$$$ on the "name" brand again. Now for the "News of the Insane"- in today's Christmas flyers- I get a Target catalog with a "Epoch by Gibson Les Paul guitar -in black- 2 pick ups- $129.99- Epoch/Gibson amp- $39.99" Now folks, if that wasn't weird- I pick up a Circuit City stereo-tv flyer- and bam..."A full sized Gibson acoustic guitar (not an Epiphone-Epoch- or Doctor Spock!)..it's 41 inches long...$149.99!!" I think our home boys have lost it. So glad to have found Tokai and some nice interesting people here on the web site! Merry Christmas to all- and to all.....keep on picking!- as Les Paul told me last year! Bear....a happy Tokai owner!!
