Hello, so to speak a little about my favorite instrument ... C "is a replica of the Stratocaster (USA), but it is a model and she was left in Japan make ... I have taken possession 1986.J 'is made a few changes, changing the bridge and mechanical oil bath (Schecter), I also sanded the entire body, which is now in its original wood color, unvarnished . I removed the tremolo and spring and three who served in the tension of this dernier.Les pickups are original (three singles). I like the style of handle (rosewood) and its 21 frets, I likes the way round rounded stratocaster .... while I play my own composition, from blues to hard rock and funk to reggae ... My next volume style changes a lot, but in principle I'm all in Acute and microphone volume is all about the tone by raising or cutting aigues.Pour blues solos and heavy, I used micro medium and also serious about playing more or less serious tone for felting and for acute to the auction ...

UTILIZATION

I like this style of handle, rounded in its ergonomics, really pleasant to the touch once the frets are roder.C is to say after several years of sliding on the frets ... Access to Acute quite appropriate and poses no problem, even in arrows ... When the sound is heard along well, a story of amps, effects, and strings and scrape, touch ... But without amplifier just putting his chin on the body ... It feels good softness and hardness .... also very versatile.

I often play Marshall and Peavey (I had a Marshall and a Peavey valtate100 Bandit112)-Currently at home I played with a small but very effective (Peavey rage158 ) is connected to the PC, I did not need more for now ... And the way I miss a lot (finance) ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since 1986, previously had an Ibanez (MC300DS) left-handed, but I got robbed in my apartment in Paris 1983.Snif as still no news ... A great feature to this guitar (Tokai) is that it is a perfect replica of the Fender Stratocaster ... had to complain at the time so she like him at all ... Crate, neck, frets, bridge and son.Je not hide if I had the choice to redeem myself a guitar, I would make the same choice in the level unbeatable price at the time ... Today is another story, because the choice there and the quality also the most affordable and it sounds after just know it to ring.
