The serial number indicates that it was made in 1983. It is miraculous that the 100 Black Seal, which indicates the grade, is still in existence. At that time, only the 150 & 200 grade part number was a solid curly maple top. However, although this guitar is a 100 grade, it has a stunning solid curly maple top and is believed to be a limited production or custom order piece.

Just one word to describe it. The 18-degree head angle, solid curly maple top, and other features make for a really great sound. The clean sound is almost acoustic. The conversion to Gibson 57Classic pickups really pays off, and with the gain turned up, it can drive everything from '50s R&R to '60s R&B, from late '60s British rock to '80s hard rock, and even today. This is truly the royal road of rock guitar!About Tokai GakkiTokai Gakki started its history as "Tokai Gakki Kenkyujo" in 1947, just after the war, for the purpose of research and development of pianos and harmonicas. 1965, the company started producing classical guitars, and in 1968, started producing electric guitars. 1977, "Tokai" brand was established and copy guitars such as Stratocaster type and Les Paul type were produced. In 1977, the "Tokai" brand was established, and copy guitars such as Stratocaster type and Les Paul type were produced. Amazingly, Les Pauls and Stratocasters were sold with detailed reproductions of the differences in specifications from one era to the next! The production of such elaborate copy models was even the subject of a lawsuits by American guitar makers…. TOKAI launched the "Les Paul Reborn" series in 1977 and started Les Paul replicas. Even the materials and specifications were thoroughly copied, and it is said that the measurements were taken from the actual vintage guitars. The name of the series changed from "Les Paul Reborn"~"Reborn OLD"~"Love Rock", but each time the accuracy was repeated with minor changes that improved it.The LS/TSL series of the 1980s had a slightly tighter head angle of 18 degrees than the originals to give a moderate string tension feel, and a printed circuit board was used for the control section, among other improvements made by Tokai. The result is not only a replica, but also a wonderful workmanship. Tokai's technical capabilities at that time were outstanding, and its workmanship is said to surpass the original today.Why is the term "Japan Vintage" used to describe TOKAI's "Love Rock" which is admired around the world? Play this guitar and you'll know, because more than 40 years ago, I discovered the essence of vintage Gibson and took hold of its obsession.About USThank you for visiting DKFactory!
