Hi all,
I?m new on this board but I?ve been luriking here for few weeks now.
I have Tokai stratocaster copy, which I bought used and it?d be interesting to know when this guitar has been made.
It?s really hard to verify since previous owner had scraped the text off from the headstock. Also pickguard has been replaced with one from Fender (pickups also), verified to be from ?79.
There?s no text on the neckplate, don?t know if it?s original or not.
Only thing there is, is ST-50 text on the rear end of the neck.
The body is black, neck feels quite thick to me.
Any ideas when this might have been made?
I have no idea what does ST-50 state for, is it base model or a copy of some particular year, Korean, Japanese ?
Thanks in advance,
Marko
