SN 2657

Tokai AST-56 Mid 80's Beautiful Fiesta Red with Flamey V-shaped Maple Neck | Reverb

Some mods. Guitar was routed to accommodate a single humbucker in the bridge position.

Ceramics pickups are surely not original.

Pots date to 1990. May not be original.

SN 114166

SSS configuration.

Wondering if this fits between the six digit 2xxxxx guitars we have postively dated to 1986/87 and the six digit 01xxxx HSS guitars that date to the early to mid 90s?

PLEASE HELP----is this an old or new Tokai?
