Anyhow, due to these uncertainties and the attitude of the people in the shop I've decided to give it a miss. Although it played very well the pickups were really really bad. The neck pickup sounded as sharp as most bridge pick ups so you can imagine what the bridge pickup sounded like.
Thanks for all your help but I think I'll be avoiding these guitars - Tokais are like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.
Sorry, mudbone, I've just read your post above. Okay, fair enough but someone else will doubtless snap it up now that you've been kind enough to bring the guitar to our attention. Please also bear in mind that all guitar brands are variable, but I find Tokai to be amongst the most consistent, quality wise.
Hi mudbone,
Contacted the shop (Guitar Junction in Worthing, UK) and they have decided to take down the "LS150" listing and inform the previous buyer (who was sold the guitar as a LS150 and paid ?1,000 for it - OUCH)!!! No bad attitude from the shop staff encountered either. Perhaps it is you who has the attitude?
Best regards,
Darren
