Tokai Guitar Stratocaster Springy Sound ST 80 1979

Of all the lawsuit guitar manufacturers of the 1970s and 1980s, by far the most collectible and widely-known brand is Tokai.
Tokai began making electric guitars as long ago as the early 1970s. Two reasons Tokai is the most famous of the lawsuit
makers are #1: Stevie Ray Vaughan played a Springy Sound on occasion, and #2: ZZ Tops plays Love Rock Les Pauls on
stage on occasion.

side from their celebrity introduction to the masses in the US and abroad, the older Tokai lawsuit guitars have the single-
most likeness to original Fenders and Gibsons of the 50s and 60s. The headstock logo of their famous Springy Sound
Stratocaster is a splitting image of the Fender spaghetti logo from the 50s and 60s. What a great replica logo! Aside from
the logo being cool, Tokai melded excellent craftsmanship with extremely smooth pickups; hot U series, vintage V series,
and Dimarzio E series on the strats, and really smooth Dimarzio PAF replica humbuckers on the Love Rock Les Pauls.

The Tokai Stratocaster Springy Sound ST 80 models go from 1000 to 1500 euros in Europe.
