I don't know what stores charge for Tokais in Japan, but I can give you a link to an easy way to check the value of your money against the yen:

Just a warning: it?s not easy finding musicstores in Japan and there is not many Tokais in display.When I went to Shibuya I found 4 musictores(one was Nancy but it was closed :evil: ).I can say the musicstores found me because atough I had the adesses the name of the streets is in kanji so.... :lol: .Next time I went there would be able to read it or I 'll take my friend Daisuke who is working as a translator for a spanish firm now....
I ?m willing to go to Japan again.

Actually, there is a district in Tokyo where Tokais abound.

It's called Ochanomizu and is easily accessible by the subway.

I was there last summer and it was just awesome. An entire city block plus, lined with music stores. A mix of old and new guitars. Lot's of Tokais and plenty of Edwards, Navigators, Grecos, etc.

The prices are similar to what you see on ebay, maybe slightly lower. You're not going to find a rock-bottom bargain, but you will find variety.

Here's the original thread:

That link that Hans added is actually how I first found out about it when I was researching before my trip.

or just buy the monthly guitar magazines and ask the hotel staff to point you in the direction. Ochanomizu is one area but there are other as well.

I speak fluent japanese and will know the area well.

I'm moving to tokyo in 3 weeks!
