Lovies Guitars is pleased to present this 1994 Tokai ATE-52 MIJ Telecaster in a classic Vintage Sunburst finish. Tokai’s ’90s Japanese-made instruments are highly respected for their exceptional build quality, vintage accuracy, and stellar playability—this ATE-52 delivers the punchy twang, snap, and clarity you’d expect from a great Tele-style guitar.

This guitar comes with a Hardshell Case (HSC) and features upgraded tuners, with the original tuner holes still visible. Condition is a solid 9.2/10, showing light play wear, pickguard scratches, minor hardware finish wear, and a handful of small dings on the top and sides. There is light worming on the back, light finish scuffing on both horns, and one light scuff on the back of the neck. Overall, a clean, great-playing MIJ Tele that’s ready for stage or studio.
