SOLD Surf Green Strat, BKP Apaches, closet classic
What's Hot
september 2016 - surf greeny still for sale - gbp 480 shipped
After a period flirting with Strats I'm letting these go. I'm more of humbucker guy and post on the MLP forum under the same moniker. With my R0 about to return from its makeover with Florian Jager it's time to clear some space. The two guitars for sale are detailed below. Price includes UK shipping. Any questions please ask.
Tokai ST60 Springy Sound // 1981 // Candy Apple Red - SOLD
MJTele Partscaster // 50s style with Barekuckle Apaches // Surf Green // gig bag - GBP 480
The TokaI
All original pickups and hardware. This example features the rarer 'spaghetti' logo. Missing back plate and trem arm. Guitar is in good condition for its 34 years of age. A few minor chips and dings in the original metallic red finish. Moderate fret wear. Nice low action. Retro gig bag.
Increasingly collectible axe made in Japan during a golden period for Japanese guitar manufacture. These earlier ones seem quite hard to come by in the UK. I imported this from Japan myself and paid the VAT and duty so you don't have to! These list on the bay for a lot more. Grab this rare guitar for a bargain price.
The Partscaster
This was built from parts supplied by MJTele in the US. Alder body (2 piece I believe), nitro finished in surf green as a 'closet classic' - so only a few natural looking nicks and dings. The nitro finished neck is a Fender licensed Allparts neck with a modern radius. The headstock has had an F logo applied to it but this is not a Fender guitar. It's a fantastic sounding instrument though. Wired with Bareknuckle Apache pickups. Aged hardware. 50s style single ply scratch guard is shielded. Originally assembled by a local luthier, the guitar also received a professional set up at Feline guitars in Croydon. Gig bag.
