Strange for sale post, so I'll explain. I've been posting this on and off forever. Never really taken the plunge until I realised I won't get anywhere until...

For sale: one Tokai SG and one of two Tokai LPs

RobbieZ

I am drooling ?. If it was not for the fact that I just spend a loooootttt of money on painting my house, the custom would have been mine.
Okay, now I will stop feeling sorry for myself. Seriously, I thing those are beautiful instruments and the person that gets them gets a steal.

domhatch

Cheers Robbie. If it weren't for the fact that I had mine eyes on something extremely specific, they wouldn't even be up here. ?

wern101

Yeah, I'm with Robbie on this one. Serious drooling. That wine red LP is to die for, but alas, with Xmas around the corner it's a no can do now. Hope you get them sold Dom. Curious about what you wanna get in their place...

wern101 Hey Wern. Now that would be telling. But suffice to say I will still ‘end up’ with my GT (which I’ve decided not to sell) and my CE80T.

Two Tokais, a new sparkly, and a paring down. What more could a fella ask for?

Tuckstir Oh, but you can! It's a gorgeous SG, too.

And wern101, @RobbieZ, I'm probably taking these two down by the end of the week anyway.

Looks like the Universe has pointed out - pretty bluntly - that these are my guitars, and that I'd better get on and bloody play them rather than try to swap them out for cash or something new.

So get your hooks in now if you're intending to at all. But mostly, thanks for all the compliments on the gear

Cheers

domhatch Indeed. Guess we'll have to wait patiently for your NGD. I think you have officially swinged my vote away from the 'traditional' LP's to Tokai. (You and singemonkey {was that his handle?}) Thank you, now I have GAS all over. :-)

domhatch

It’s an absolute pleasure. Speaking of, I’ve had such immense pleasure out of my SG and my Custom (when I do take it out of its case) - if it wasn’t for the fact that I’ve been seriously lusting after this next purchase for some time, they wouldn’t even be up.

domhatch Sheesh, if I Could I would, that SG... always been partial to a SG...

? ? ?

GAS is real! Likely. someone will fall in love with it during a jam and make you a offer you can't refuse. I get more offers from jams than advertising! My fav four instruments are all lusted after by multiple peeps.

domhatch

V8 No doubt. Well, I'll probably end up hanging on to them for just a while longer...

Quelle hardship... ?

domhatch

V8 Yup, you're probably right. Nonetheless, I'll leave the Classified up here for now. See what happens. Kick meself in the bee-hind later... ?

Sigh. I am sure the SG would be my style of guitar (shades of Boston and monster sustain) and it is a fair price, but I already have a two Humbuckerer-ed guitars, which I enjoy too much to swop (yet). There seems to be a message here - you are supposed not to have the PRS? Or, you will have a PRS, but will continue to experience pride of ownership and playing satisfaction with these guitars too. Or, maybe, later they soar in price to R100K each due to some small, presently not noticed or known, technical thing unique to only five Tokais ever built.

But enjoy them anyway.

domhatch

modulator Yeh, well, in the meantime (and since forever), I am enjoying the Tokais, trust me. But I have my heart set on owning (re-owning, really) a PRS, since I've had two before. The Gold Top - think I mentioned - I've decided not to sell, I've made the mistake of selling one of these before (it was an Epi, but I just love the tone of those big, phat P-90s). And this is a level or several thousand above an Epi.

So you're probably right; hang on to these for now and save up until the cash is there for the PRS of mah dreams!

Cheers
