Or anyone else Smile

Have you ever heard of a Tbird copy made by Tokai? My local guitar shop has one for 400 of my English pounds. He let me play it and I was mightily pleased. *Holy Censor, Batman* heavy though, and appeared to be of one piece wooden construction. Is that right? I really can't afford another guitar, but the chance to play a Tbird ( alright a copy) was one I couldn't resist. Very Happy

I've seen Epiphone T-Birds but not Tokai. Sounds like it could be pretty cool. Still not cheap though I see. I think the low-end Epi copies are bolt on necks, so if the Tokia is neck-thru then that's a plus.

I did some research. Sounds like Tokai makes the best copies around. I saw two Tbirds going for 389.00 and 399.00 (pounds) respectively.

*Holy Censor, Batman*, I think I have to search one out for myself!

Hey, dudes! been outta town for a while... Yes Tokai makes some pretty decent copies! I had a tokai eb-3 copy & it was actually a better player than some of the Gibsons Ive seen.only the messed up Gibsons, of course. Very Happy

Go for it!
