Up for sale, a 2014 Tokai Goldstar Sound AST-118 S-Style in near-mint condition and in perfect working order. Well-kept and imported direct from Toyko, this premium Japanese-made Strat features a Blue Burst gloss finish over an ash body, paired with a maple neck and dark slab 22-fret Indian rosewood fretboard.

The guitar delivers a clear, authoritative acoustic tone, translating faithfully through Tokai's black bobbin ST-Vintage MK3 single coils. Via the five-way pickup selector switch, there's plenty of treble-centric sparkle and sweetness in the bridge position, with a cutting and percussive middle pickup, and a warm, round-sounding neck position, all with the midrange authority and note attack inherent in ash as a tonewood. Weighing 7lbs 7oz, this Tokai has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
