Tokai PR-Esque Models? Any Opinions?

Hello, all. I've decided to buy an electric guitar, and have been doing research on them over the weekend. Tokai was a name that stood out. Unfortunately, since they're located in Japan and I'm on a limited budget, I didn't really consider them an option (I was set on getting a Godin LG) until I came across this link:

It's an MIK (I think) PRS-style guitar. No model, for some reason. I'm pretty sure everything Tokai this guy's sold was a MIK, because they go for way too little to be MIJ (from what I've seen those start at ~$600USD in Japan). So, what do you guys think? Browsing through a few threads, it seems some Korean models are associated with poor quality, but stand-outs do exist. I figured I might be able snatch this at a low price and save a bit instead of spilling around $400 for a Godin, but if it really is driftwood as someone mentioned in several threads, I'll stick with my original choice.

Thanks very much for the info. I think I'll hold off on this one, it looks like bidding will end up over $400USD anyway (already ~$250 with more than 5 days to go). Maybe one day I'll be able to get a Japanese Love Rock... but not anytime soon, hahaha.
