Hi all!
I have been wanting to get an ES type Tokai for a while now. There is a store in my home state called B music that is a dealer. Although they are still quite pricey.
One thing I am confused with is all the versions. There is ES60, ES110, ES130, ES135. Can someone explain the differences to me?
From what I understand some have flamed maple while others are plain and some have a lacquer (nitro) top coat, is that basically it?
Which version is the best value for money while still being great quality? Or are they all about the same with just the added cost for flame etc?
what kind of bridges do they use? Similar to a nashville on a gibson with bushings or posts straight into the wood like an ABR-1?
What are the neck angles generally like? Accurate?
I still have quite a lot of saving to do and can't decide between purchasing internationally online and possibly paying customs etc or getting it straight from B music.
Any answers to my questions would be much appreciated.
