Tokai

Tokai Gakki Co., Ltd., commonly known as Tokai Guitars Company Ltd., is a Japanese guitar producer established in 1947 and located in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka prefecture.

Specializing in a variety of instruments, Tokai Guitars crafts acoustic guitars, electric guitars, electric basses, autoharps, and melodicas. The company has a rich history of manufacturing replicas of legendary guitar models, including the Love Rock Model and Les Paul Reborn Les Paul-inspired guitars, as well as the Springy Sound and Breezysound Stratocaster and Telecaster style guitars.

Collaborating with Martin in 1972, Tokai entered a joint venture to manufacture acoustic guitar components and build Martin’s Sigma guitars. Subsequently, in 1973, Tokai also commenced production of the “Cat’s Eyes” Martin replicas. The innovative Talbo, a metal body guitar, was introduced by Tokai in 1983 and was once favored by the band Devo.

The inception of Tokai’s “Les Paul Reborn” Les Paul replicas dates back to approximately 1976, and by around 1978, the designation was altered to the “Love Rock Model.” Concurrently, Tokai ventured into crafting Fender replicas in 1977, with Stevie Ray Vaughan famously playing a Springy Sound on occasion. Notable musicians such as Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top and Robert Fripp have also favored Tokai guitars.

Woodstock Guitars always have a large stock of Tokai guitars and basses in Denmark.
