So many beautiful and cool basses in this thread.
ATM I'm so satisfied with my Yamaha BB2000 '84 (lovely neck, great sound, great build quality all over etc.), but I'd love to have a Hardpuncher like this; Sunburst, black plastic ? la 70's style, and I definitely wouldn't mind some slight tears and wears on it either.
These are total rock'n' roll-machines IMO:

in the control cavity are a numeral serial "12AvSOX" , what does in mean?
in the heel of the neck have serial number "7=12A".

http://brochures.yokochou.com/guitar-and-amp/tokai/1984/en_08.html Hi Marsel ,I think your bass is a 1984 TJB 70 J Jaco Pastorius model judging by the serial number and the slab as opposed to veneer rosewood fingerboard.Very nice find! Gabe.

Here is my Hard Puncher, PB40 I believe
Bought it from a friend in the early 90's. I have put in new bridge, active pick-ups, knobs, and electronics over the years but still kept all the original stuff. the serial number is 109109 but a previous owner engraved another number on the back plate for reasons unknown to me. Looks like it has a tobacco sunburst finish. Dunno the date of manufacture. She is really wonderful to play, my favorite bass.

I just got my first Tokai bass. A 1981 Jazz Sound. The seller is calling it a JB-45R. Not sure if that's right or not? I am not a bass player, I'm a guitarist, but somehow I have 3 basses now. LOL.
Here are some pics. Would love to have feedback. It's shipping from Japan so I haven't laid hands on it yet.
Thanks!
