According to the info on the Registry, this is a 1980 model. It's got the "Pointy Bell" TRC, it's got the twin ring tuners (with patina), it's got a PCB in the control cavity, it's also got the "Patent Applied For" stamped cream uncovered pickups, and last but not least, the inked serial No.
The main site also states in the Gibson Models Information page, it states that the LP Reborn went to 1979, the Reborn Old was 1980 only and that the Love Rock was from 1980 to present. It also states that the serial no's all have a 0 as the 2nd digit. The patina on the hardware certainly suggests age, even if the wear doesn't. Closet classic maybe?
However, on the Gibson Copy Information page, it states "So far all the inked numbers seem to begin 01, 10, or 11" and "and it now seems likely these are Japanese made Tokais dating from 1980-81." which seems to contradict what is said about serial No's on the Gibson Models Info page.
I have the impression that, like fellow Japanese manufacturer Ibanez, Tokai went through a period of major changes in both models and serial No's during the late 70's and early 80's, and the inked serial no. Love Rock's are proof of that change, and that the Reborn Old lasted into 1980 with the traditional stamped serial no, but by late 1980, the name was changed to Love Rock and the serial no's were modified to reflect this change. Hence the "01", "10" and "11" serial no's (late '80, early '81 and late '81 is my guess).
I'm sure it'll be debated for some time, but I do think it is a 1980 model, albeit a late 1980 model, similar to the LS60BS from the '81 catalogue.
