I've been searching for a Tokai ES model in Canada with no luck. I've emailed the North American distributor (I believe it is Godlyke Distributing) and he said "ES models cannot be sold in North America due to trademark issues with Gibson - sorry, if you want one of these guitars you'd have to purchase from overseas....." . So from there I emailed the UK distributor, Tokai Guitars (UK) Limited for a list of trusted dealers who regularly do business with the US. They forward my email to several UK dealers.
My request is, if any of you have had any experience with: Coda Music; Don Mackrills Music Stop; Antone's Guitars, UK; or Wizard Guitars, please post that. Any info that could help me make an informed decision would be appreciated.
