Hello,

I would like to know the model of a Tokai guitar I inherited from my father. It has no serial number on its neck or anywhere I could imagine (is it a real Tokai?).
The neck only says it was made in Korea.

Thanks a lot for your help.

It was made between 2000 and 2005.

The model would be ES60. Looks like a brown or tobacco sunburst.

No paper label inside?

Here is a pic in the 2000 catalog

Thank you so much! Unfortunately, I cannot find any paper label inside... That's why I was a bit confused.
 
Do you know what type of knobs should I buy to replace those missing on this guitar?
Thanks.
 
If it has the original pots they are probably metric. The shaft will have a certain number of splines.
 
So I am just noticing the shafts are gone on two of the pots. It can be tough to replace them on a hollow body.

You probably will want to take it to a luthier unless you feel comfortable doing it.
