Tokai Super Edition Stratocaster - 80’s Vintage Guitar, Made In Japan / MIJ | eBay

Seller's description:

Has had some modifications in the past. Very high gain output, fast fretboard, chunky frets. Features Kahler made in USA locking tremolo system - Unfortunately I’ve misplaced the arm and Allen key. Comes in a plush Hiscox case. Built in the era that Tokai were out performing Fender as a hybrid between a classic Stratocaster and a metal style guitar. Very rare & collectible - Great value vintage guitar.
