Tokai Pink Paisley Les Paul (FAO: WTR)

Post by James »

I've seen a Tokai Paisley SG (though with a black burst) before but never a Paisley LP. I feel like I want to like it but don't quite.

Yeah,I remember when those came out in 2012. They were only available overseas and they sold out pretty quickly.

The only ones I have seen for sale recently are in Australia

They have some teles too

I saw that on the Guitarz blog. Looks great. The Gibson cream kind of blunts the effect . Clear pup surrounds and a paisley switch ring would really make that for me. Maybe no ring at all.

You need the Tokai Paisley hardshell case to go with it.

I like it, especially how they did the Quality Street pink in the proper tear-burst shape, makes for a neater execution than on the teles with their clear pickguards blotted around the pickup.

Why do they blot around the neck pickup anyway?

So that you can't see the neck pickup rout through the clear pickguard
