This was my first (and still only) electric guitar. I absolutely love it

@pelipetteri1 7 лет назад

I have one of these (thanks for this video) and have to say myself too, that it's really great cheaper SG. I put Seth Lover to neck and change UOA5 magnet to Tokai's own stock MK4 pickup and that to bridge, then i put polka dot kind of marks to body, other than that didn't need to change anything else. Great guitar!

@Hawk1946 5 лет назад

I have a recently acquired Korean Tokai SG...identical to the one in the video. It's one of very few Asian import guitars that I have made no modifications to...other than strings, bridge height etc. The pickups are actually very nice, I see no reason to change them. Wiring, pots, caps, etc. work fine...it has mini pots...but they work great and I'll leave it alone. Great sounding 6.9 pound SG right out of the box. If you like SG's and you see one like this at a good price, get it.

Muy bueno , traigan la guitarra a la Argentina

Shane, I believe on the Japan SG what Tokai did is more of a late 70's Wine Red for the finish. On this guitar they did more of the older style Cherry Red finish. The one thing I like that I wish the Epi G-400 models would have is that the neck being bound like on this Tokai. It sounds great and I wouldn't change a thing on it. Congrats on this one along with the Les Paul Standard model. I thought both of them sounded great when you were playing in the club with your band from the video I watched earlier today.

Killer axe Shane, like you say it's nice and bright. I will say though I'm kind of over that Movall amp, I miss your fenders. I know it's not very practical but I'd love to hear some demos using your super reverb.

@intheblues 9 лет назад

+Daniel Jeffries Yep! It's on the way out mate. I will go back to my Blues Deluxe coming up this month. Once the last of the Aleks K Production pedals are finished. It's Fender all day again :-). I can't use my Super-Reverb at home it's too loud :-( Once I move though, I'll be able to crank it. I'll make sure of that.

@DarkoP9.13 9 лет назад

+intheblues Maybe less powerful preamp tubes will help in the fender?

@intheblues 9 лет назад

I tested the super-reverb into my isolation cab and it sounds fantastic. It's like a fat deluxe reverb so I'll be going over to that really soon :-)

@DrivingDunkShot 9 лет назад

Sweet

@Branden_Witte 9 лет назад

Probably some of the best tones I've heard from you.

@philallan6685 4 года назад

Nice review, mate. I have a lefty 2005 USG70 MIJ - just a lovely, lovely guitar bought in the UK. You really do the Tokais justice on your channel and they've always serviced the lefty market really well, my first ever guitar was a Tokai Strat back in the mid-80s. The quality on the Japanese models is off the charts, prob better than most of Gibson's except the high end ones. In fairness, my stepson is lucky enough to have a Gibson custom shop Angus Young, which is one of the all time best guitars I ever seen - the curse of the lefty is that I can't play it! If anyone has a lefty 335-style they want too offload - let me know! ;-)

@craigclark5845 6 лет назад

I seen one of these locally today very tempted to get one

@ryanmaffle9760 9 лет назад

Don't like the greenish tuning pegs but it doesn't matter, all about the tone and it's a killer!

@FernandoLopez-ju4uv 2 года назад

Hola, mi inglés no es bueno, no entendí, prefieres la epiphone o la tokai, quiero comprarme una sg, y estoy dudando entre epiphone y tokai. Gracias.

@claudioalbanesi7727 Год назад

I recently bought I Tokai SG made in china that iit s a really fine and well made instrument. The only problem I have is with the PU that to me are a bit dark and high output. I would like to know how do you feel with this PU, I am going to swap them for a pair on anlico 2 that are more bluesy oriented and low output

@DMSProduktions 9 лет назад

That's good too Shane. DOES it have the same pick ups as the Tokai LR you bought? I thought the LP style sounded a tad thicker than the SG, but not a lot in it. NATO body on this 1. Just WATCH the necks on these Chinese Tokais. The maple 1s tend to be slab sawn, and I had problems with my Rebelrocker Ric 330 style. Frets needed tapering to play right.

@stedyedy45 9 лет назад

Sounds great! Like an early Townsend tone. Can you get these in the uk?

@kingstumble 9 лет назад

+Steven Dyche Hard to find in the UK but Absolute Guitars sell some Tokai models.Your best bet is Bax Shop--which are Dutch I believe but have recently set up a UK website(competing with Thomann maybe?)and they have got loads of Tokais listed.Good prices too. This SG is £268.

You mean 2:53?

@mariosv8040 9 лет назад

I believe Townshed played P90's (single coil) SGs (Live at Leeds, Woodstock).

@sinianzhang 6 лет назад

so tokai sg vs epi sg, which wins

@brogoram 5 лет назад

Tokai

@jumpingman8160 9 лет назад

whenever I see an SG two names pop into mind immediately: Tony Iommi and Robby Krieger.

@teunputker 9 лет назад

Not Angus Young?

@jumpingman8160 9 лет назад

Teun Music Productions ACDC is not a fav. But shure, throw him in there.

@teunputker 9 лет назад

I always think of Angus when I see a SG :D

@jumpingman8160 9 лет назад

Teun Music Productions \m/

@lordjj44 8 лет назад

Angus is more notable for it then Krieger

@okayestguitarist 9 лет назад

Hi Shane. The Amazon link doesn't take you to your stuff. It was also hard to do a search for it in Amazon. I want to get a t-shirt.

@intheblues 9 лет назад

+Michael Stander That link is basically a way to support the channel through affiliation links. If you're looking for the Tone Shop it's at www.intheblues.com.au or the forum at www.intheblues.net cheers mate. :)

@okayestguitarist 9 лет назад

Ahh...gotcha. I thought you had product on Amazon. I will check you site out. Thanks, Shane!

@okayestguitarist 9 лет назад

+intheblues hey Shane, do you sell in the blues t-shirts? I didn't see one on the website. I would love to buy one if you have them. I'm a huge fan of your show!!

@BlackClawDoom 4 года назад

Just out if interest, how much you recomend buying a LH MIJ tokai sg98? Possibly have the chance to pick one up for around £700. So just wondering if they really are worth it. Because I here a lot of people saying MIJ tokais quite often play better than there gibson counterparts. Cheers.

@prandz420 3 года назад

Did you end up getting it? I’m looking at a 2012 MIJ right now…

@BlackClawDoom 3 года назад

@@prandz420 yea! Found out the one I was looking at was an old 1984 MIJ Tokai so 700 was actually a really good price. Had it a good year now and it’s hands down my favourite guitar, and it’s one that I will definitely never be selling.

@frozenhead6653 7 месяцев назад

where to buy this one??

@martinkosina4807 8 лет назад

have anyone got idea where to buy these in europe?

@ryanlong705 9 лет назад

Is it possible to buy these new in the U.S.?

@Owen_plays_music1049 Год назад

The clean kinda sucks but with a bit of OD it sounds sick 😎

@Yksinainensusi1 8 лет назад

How much did you pay for this one? My first guitar is something like this but I'm not quite sure which Tokai SG I have. Bought it from a store for about 350€

@MrVepe47 8 лет назад

Well i could get that for about 400€ from a local music store so, it's propably the same one.

@charlesstiles8904 5 лет назад

Anyone ever heard of a Vinyard sg

@voiceofexperience 3 года назад

Very "late 60s" sounding guitar imo. Definitely more Jimi than Angus.

@Idontlikethisever Год назад

7years later. Try to find a left handed version in the states. 😂

@ozflyer1 2 года назад

Clean that sounds as thin as paper.... horrid tone setup, surely it cant have such crappy pups in it to produce that thin sound. Maybe you need to tweak the tone a tad
