Hi guys Im new to this site and I love it very informative.
I was extremely luck to recently purchase a Tokia Silverstar serial number 3043173. The guy that sold it to me in Sydney Australia was a exchange student from Japan and the guitar was his personal. He said he was reluctant to sell but needed the money. He said it is all original and plays awsome.
I had it checked out by some mates that are collectors and they did some searching around and all agreed it was the real Mckoy!. the guy that sold it to me said it was a early 80 built model and copy of the early 70's strat. He said the guitar was never built for export from Japan.
My question is based on the serial number of the guitar, what year would it have been built?
Do I need to put pics of it on the forum?
Any assistance is really appreciated. I will not be selling this guitar but will add it to my collection with the other various makes and models I have collected over the years.
Thanks Guys.
