Tokai Love Rock MIJ Stripped Top 2005 Electric Guitar

Here for sale we have a Tokai Love Rock MIJ in Stripped Top finish. Made in Japan in 2005, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Mahogany body with Maple top, Mahogany neck and 22 Medium Jumbo fret Rosewood fingerboard. This guitar is fitted with Chrome hardware including a TOM style bridge and tailpiece, along with Nickel finished vintage-style tuning machines with Kluson-style tulip buttons. A pair of Suhr Aldrich Zebra Humbuckers are installed in this guitar, these are wired to a 3-way toggle switch and independent volume and tone controls. The Mahogany neck plays very well, with a profile that might be described as a ‘D’ shape. This fills the hand nicely for a comfortable grip when chord playing, without being so big as to feel cumbersome. This allows for fast and articulate playing, with easy reach across the register. The Rosewood fingerboard is pleasant to the touch, and with its traditional 12" radius strikes a perfect balance between comfortable chord playing and practicality for string bending and lead lines. The traditional control layout keeps everything within easy reach without intruding on the playing experience. The pair of Suhr Aldrich Zebra Humbuckers deliver thick, full-bodied tones just as you would expect from a guitar of this style. The neck pickup is warm and round, with plenty of grunt for driving the amp into a saturated distortion- perfect for your solo sounds. The bridge pickup is of course hotter and brighter, easily cutting through the mix on your rock rhythm parts. The traditional twin-humbucker controls with independent volume and tone pots ensure that you remain in full control of your sound at all times, allowing you to sculpt your perfect sound right on the guitar.
