Tokai Gakki is a long-established guitar manufacturer that has been making guitars in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture since the 1960s.

Tokai Gakki began manufacturing F-shape electric guitars in the 1970s, and continues to produce high-quality handmade guitars today.

Tokai Gakki's philosophy of "inefficient production" is truly an expression of the spirit of good old-fashioned Japanese craftsmanship.

The wood is processed and assembled with techniques that can only be achieved by skilled craftsmen.

When you actually touch these soulful instruments, you can feel the uncompromising craftsmanship,

The entire instrument vibrates richly.

The comfortable sound makes you feel as if you want to hold the instrument in your hand and play it forever.

The Stratocaster type Stratocaster that we have just received is one of our newest models,

This is a limited production model with a "blue flower pattern" on the body.

The wood selection is based on the standard Stratocaster of the 60's. The 2-piece alder body is made of maple.

Alder 2P body, maple neck, Indian rosewood fingerboard.

It is a magical combination that produces the familiar Strat-like sound.

Tokai Instruments' electrics also surprise you with the quality of the wood.

It has an excellent sense of balance, is easy to hold, and has an excellent sound.

It seems that well-selected woods are used, which gives a good impression.

The neck shape is a natural and easy-to-grip "C" shape.

The thickness and shape are easy for first-time guitarists to pick up.

Above all, it feels natural and comfortable in the hand, probably because it is hand-carved by craftsmen.

This is a sensory difference from mass-produced guitars.

The pickups are Tokai Gakki's original "ST-Classic" pickups.

It is an excellent pickup with a vintage sound, and has a good fatness, a sense of sound removal, and a sense of separation.

The wood is sounding and has fatness, but you can also feel the sparkle of a Strat.

The frets are medium size.

The frets are medium size with 22 frets for a wider range of sound.

Fretboard radius is 240mm, which is a little flatter than vintage specs.

The fretboard R is 240mm, which is slightly flatter than vintage specs, so that choking is less likely to occur when the strings are set at a low height.

The paint is urethane finish, which is durable and easy to handle.

This is a very rare spec from Tokai Gakki.

Please order as soon as possible.

You can also try it in our store.
