tokai LS-145S GT photos:
"At last! At last!" So they kept their word with delivering it end of February, right? That's a long neck tenon, by the way, it doesn't get any longer than that on humbucker guitars either.bruno said:I have a few questions of my own, I removed the neck pickup to see the deep joint, it does extend but not at the same level as the deck of the cavity, probably because the cavity is not as deep as in a humbucker guitar... (this is clearly visible in the first photo, the tongue extends from the neck but it's not as tall as the cavity deck)...
I agree that you could be tricked by this long straight line on the back, but picture no. 5 shows the side of the body on the bottom, and there's no straight line, only the nice vertical graining. You could also check the pickup switch cavity, because the line runs through it. Congrats on the first LS145S in Europe, and now go play her!the other thing, which I first got pissed at was it didn't look like a one piece back there are two grains that cross the length of the body that look like glue surfaces, but due to the look of the grain at the edge of the body I think they aren't glue lines at all, they are straight lines of grain, but maybe you can give me your opinion on this to, these are visible in the second and third photos)
You're welcome! My favorite Les Paul/P-90 tone is from the early Les Dudek albums though, that's where I first heard this unique tone.bruno said:actually thank you hans, you are a largely guilty part on this acquisition, your tokais/pickups shoot out, did play a large role in getting my attention...
ps.- hans I'll be playing some ZZ on it too :wink:
