Tokai Goldstar Sound AST70, sunburst, made in Japan 2014. Tokai have a long and storied history building exceptional F-style guitars. This is a recent example, and dang folks: they still have it. The woodwork is impeccable: two piece centre joined alder, super tightly grained maple neck... perfect. The neck feels excellent in the hands; it's relatively slim and quick and super sturdy. The tone is very convincing: fat and glassy on the neck, heaps of snarl and bark in the middle, warm and slicing on the bridge. This is amazing value, it will surely fill the Strat-shaped gap in your life just right.
