Greetings:
I own a Tokai "Love Rock" guitar --- I think!
As you can see in the pictures, someone seems to have messed with the Love Rock logo on the headstock, so I'm looking for some help verifying the history of the guitar before I list it in the Tokai Registry. It looks like someone traced the words "love rock" by hand, and they blocked out the word "model" - I tried to highlight this on one of the headstock pictures.
The serial number stamped on the headstock is # 5031703, and I think that means it was built in 1985. I looked inside the cavities for the model number with no luck, but found "R. Russell" with what looks like a SS# scratched into the aluminum film of the pick-up selector backing plate!
So, can anyone tell me about this guitar (i.e. year, model, pick-ups, etc)?
The pictures are located here:
