Has anyone seen or know of tokai making a les Paul deluxe copy?

I've always wanted a mini hum bucker deluxe in goldtop form and after playing my tokai sg for a while, I think tokai would be the way to go. I'd probably have to sell said sg to make funds, but think it'll be worth it.

I know Vintage do one in wine red that looks nice. Seen 'em go second hand on gumtree and ebay. Might be a cheap way to dip your toes in the water.

A googling shows that Greco did one, fo sure. here's the Vintage:

There was Ibanez on ebay long time ago. From 70's, goldtop, two mini humbuckers, looked decent.

You could convert a P90 Les Paul into one. GFS make parts for this I think.

That Vintage looks lovely; I really dig the colour.

I'm never sure of whether the UK Tokai site is up-to-date with what the factory/factories is/are producing, but there's this one and this one. They're around the price of some Gibsons there, but the line-up has some that are comparable to the Epis price-wise too.
