This modern iteration of Tokai's T-style model is a faithful, high-quality spin on the ‘50s Fender “Blackguard” Telecaster platform. An upper-tiered, genuine Japanese-made guitar (as opposed to the much more common Chinese-made Tokai models), this Tokai easily competes with Fender's American Vintage\/Original series line of instruments, boasting a nitro lacquer finish, premium hardware, and USA-made components in the wiring harness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFeatherweight at 7lbs 1oz, this Tokai features a two-piece ash body and a one-piece Canadian hard rock maple neck, delivering on the promise of classic Tele sparkle and twang. Fat and throaty in the neck position, chiming and cutting in the middle, and offering chewy twang from the flat-pole bridge pickup, this guitar covers all of the critical single coil bases via the TE-MK2 pickups. This Breezysound benefits from a professional setup here at Mike and Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Neck: Canadian rock maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Chunky C, measuring .860\" deep at the 1st fret and .970\" at the 12th\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Maple, 7 1\/4” radius, black dot inlays\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Medium jumbo,\u003cbr\u003e \n-Scale Length: 25 1\/2”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut width: 1 5\/8”, bone\u003cbr\u003e \n-Tuners: Kluson-style, Gotoh\u003cbr\u003e\n-Serialization: Six-digit serial, “Made in Japan”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Body: Ash (2pc)\u003cbr\u003e\n-Pickups: TE-MK2 single coil x2\u003cbr\u003e\n-Harness: CTS 250k pots (34th week of 2015)\u003cbr\u003e\n-Controls: Volume, Tone, three-way selector switch\u003cbr\u003e\n-Hardware: TE-VB vintage-style bridge with brass saddles, flat-top knurled knobs, control plate\u003cbr\u003e\n-Plastics: One-ply black pickguard, top hat switch tip\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCategorized as \"Vintage Natural\" in the Tokai catalog and replicating a shade of Butterscotch, this genuine gloss nitro lacquer finish has a very vintage-correct tint and great transparency, highlighting the broad, dynamic grain of the two-piece ash body.
