The mighty Tokai have been building guitars in Japan, which rival the very best of that brand with an F at the beginning, for many decades. This TTE118 is no exception. It's a Tele style (duh), with a butterscotch finish Ash body, maple 'U' neck, and a lovely dark/rich Rosewood board. One of the all time best Tele looks, in my opinion! 

A proper, no-nonsense vintage Telecaster. It also comes with a rather lovely tweed hard case.

Tokai Japan prices have climbed higher in recent years, currently on-par with American Fender. HOWEVER, that's not the case with this one! We've been able to blag a special deal, taking what would usually be a guitar with a retail of £1405, and smashing it down to £999 

You're not likely to find many new MIJ Tokai at this price anymore, so strike while the iron is hot!
