tokai hollow body?

[reez_rock]

Guys,
Need some opinion and recommendation.

I'm currently GAS-ing badly for a tokai ES-335 copy.....But not sure wether i should pull the trigger yet and purchase it...I know the only distributor in Singapore is the Pianomanshop right?

this is the model i'm looking

some questions about the guitar....
- how much is the price range?I'm looking for the affordable china or korean made
- anyone own the guitar?how does it play compare to others affordable es335 copies(say epi dot/casino or hamer echotone)
- Does it neck dive?
- Neck profile?



Thanks a lot Guys

reeze if you're going for mic tokai, i'd say its back to square 1

imo even if you get the mij ones, you'd be tempted to swap out the pups...

but dont quote on me, i may be wrong..

haha like that ah bro...dunno why i badly gasing for a es 335 copy....maybe because i tend to play less hard songs nowadays

tried quite a couple before.....epi dot, cort source, hamer echotone, ibanez am73.......so far the best of all i had was the epi dot, the ibanez was pretty good as well.....

Tokai have very good wood.. But from experience.. original MIJ pickups have lots of feedback..
