New acquisition from New Member, some comments please!

[TokaiGreece]

Hello,

I am new to this forum as a member but I have read many subjects that had been very helpful deciding on the purchase of a Tokai Strat.

I have been a guitar player for many years but I had always preferred LP guitars. A new project in the studio requires some Strat Tones (Pink Floyd covers) and I decided to proceed with the purchase of a good value guitar and hence, I was looking for a Tokai reading all the comments in your forum. I have purchased the following guitar:

Do you think is a good Strat for the money? I will send you comments as soon as I receive her but I am eagerly awaiting to play her.

Thank you all!

Welcome to the forum.

That's a good price for a "new" AST70. What's the story behind the Rio Grande tallboy set on a new guitar?

Thank you for your reply.

I think the dealer changed the originals to make it sound better as a demo in the store. I have no experience with Tokai p/ups but I have also heard good comments for the Rio Grande. I will listen to them and let you know about my opinion. I am no specialist in single coils. I have used Humbuckers most of my life.
