Hi friends
First i like to say sorry for my bad english, first time for me here.
Since a few weeks I have a tokai strat, with a spaghetti logo, sunburst color, with the serial number 2020263. in the body i found the numbers 4=8 and than the letters ys z. It's the guitar of a friend of mine, he had it on the attic for years in the original case.
He told me that he byed the guitar new, somewhere arround late 60,or just begin 1970, what i like to know is the exact date for this guitar, it's still in an excelant shape, and the sound is really beautiful, if i now how to add a picture I send you one!
Hope you can help me?
Much regards jan from the netherlands.
 
Hi Jan,
I think your friends memory may have slipped a bit. I think Silverstars were made around the 1978-1981 era. The "YS" marking in the cavity I believe stands for the colour code for Yellow Sunburst.
I think Peter Mac knows alot more about Silverstars than anyone else on the Forum.

Peter Mac started a thread on this a few weeks ago. It would be worth following up.
