Three Generations

[currypowder]

3 generations of Tokai LS models. From L to R, 1979 LS-80, 2003 LS-320, 2022 LS-324. The 320 was my very first MIJ guitar that sent me down the rabbit hole from which I have never emerged. The other 2 are recent acquisitions. I would never try to pick "the best", whatever that means. All 3 are fantastic in their own way.

All are gorgeous.

I have to say that LS320 is a stunner. I understand how that one could send you down rabbit holes (and foster an addiction).

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks. I've only seen one 320 from the same period with a top that I like better than this one (at least from the pics). And that one, I believe, is still owned by Villager (Japanguitars)

You must mean this one:

Edit: looks like we have had this conversation before. LOL

Did you see the quilt LS200 Cliff got? Mind blowing.

Here are some of my favorites including that one:
