Rare early 1981 Tokai LS-200 OS for sale.
Only few of these custom order Tokai's were made and this one has been in Europe since at least the early 90s. A former owner has put mini switches on it which were later changed for the brass studs you see now.
This Tokai has a beautiful finish which is somewhere in between a BS and a OS finish. Probably OS but because of the cashew lacquer only used on these highest end Tokai?s she's different in appearance from the normal OS.
She has a lovely restrained solid flame top with beautiful streaks and flecks, a one piece back and really got that old wood sound.
I have changed the tuners for beautiful Uncle Lou tuners which will be included in the sale. She also sports aged Faber locking bridge and locking tailpiece and has 50s wiring, CTS TVT pots and early 60s Sprague black beauty caps.
Pickups are Seymour Duncan 59s and frets are in excellent condition.
Weight is 4.14 kg or 9 lbs 2 oz.
Neck profile is average 1959 burst profile (ref: BOTB).
Comes with original Tokai pink lining hard shell case.
Price 2900 euro plus shipping.
