He he, this is really tricky territory for a newbie...

Could anyone post a picture or two, of the differences between the Cort and Tokai made Greco LP Custom?

Here is a picture of how it looks. It has the same wire and tenon - but not the "egc 75" stamp.

That's a Tokai made Greco.

Note the 2 square shaped shallow holes on each side of the bottom of the pickup cavity, that's done by a Tokai factory router.
