Apart from the short lived SG classic (with P90's), that is the coolest SG I've ever seen.

What about the Pete Townshend?  It's cooler than the Classic because it has a wraparound bridge!

Yep, 'fraid so.  Went over in person to his Sheffield store.  Some nice guitars there, and some 'interesting' prices...

Cheers Steve!  I guess as it has single coils it's OK with you  ;)

I had a rattle on one of those Tokai Specials before. Lovely, lovely instrument.

Bad.  For example:

* Vintage 'distressed' Les Paul Copy - £349 (RRP £299)
* Vintage 'distressed' Strat Copy - £299 (RRP £249)
* Tokai Love Rock Relic - £1199 (at RRP, but Coda Music have one at £749)

See what I mean???  If you don't do you homework first you'd feel stung.  This is always true in a lot of shops as discounts vary, but paying over RRP?  I'd be seriously naffed off...
