But my phone’s been missing wifi at home leading to unexpectedly depleted data. Fine times out of the winter funk in the warm interior of the Striped Horse on Surfers’ Corner.

I’ve gigged this guitar more than any other. And it’s my all-time favourite. A Tokai LS150 made in 2010. I finally restrung it and cleaned it up after shamefully having done neither for more than a year. It’s got plenty more work ahead of it this year.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2020-03-25-the-couch-is-getting-crowded/ Wed, 25 Mar 2020 13:00:06 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2020-03-25-the-couch-is-getting-crowded/ <p>The couch is getting crowded with different kinds of stuff to practise. I&rsquo;m tempted to bring down a fourth for some rockabilly stuff I&rsquo;m working on too.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2019-03-12-im-old-enough-to-remember/ Tue, 12 Mar 2019 11:58:13 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2019-03-12-im-old-enough-to-remember/ <p>I’m old enough to remember when ‘Made in Japan’ was code for cheap and shoddy goods. Even then it was out of date. I own American originals and this guitar smokes ‘em.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-10-01-haha-no-ways-tokai-silver/ Sun, 01 Oct 2017 17:18:40 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2017-10-01-haha-no-ways-tokai-silver/ <video controls preload="metadata" poster="17876451757189064_thumb.jpg" style="width:100%;height:auto;"> <source src="17876451757189064.mp4" type="video/mp4"> </video> <p>Haha.

The perfect sunburst Les Paul does exist. And it’s made by Tokai Japan.</p>
