Here for sale we have a Tokai Love Rock LS-98F Electric Guitar in Violin Burst finish. Made in Japan in 2014, this guitar consists of a 2-piece Mahogany body with a Maple cap, a Mahogany neck, and a 22-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include 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 Tokai MK2-S humbucking pickups 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 'C' profile that might be described as a SlimTaper 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 Tokai MK2-S 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.
Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
