Tokai Talbo 1983 made original 2 screw type
This Talbo is early 80's made model from the serial.
Early days Talbo is completely different from the current model.
Well, same aluminum body, however, early model was made 2 cast aluminum body.
2 front and rear bodies were welded. After welding, the Polyurethanes form were
injected from the top hole beside middle PU cavity. The current Talbo is
casting aluminum
body, therefore, it is one piece body.
As explained, at the result of body constructions, the Tremolo cavities are different too.
The body shapes are slightly different. The earlier model
is a bit round shape, the current model is more shape (edged).
The earlier Talbo has the 2 bolted on type neck. The neck end was processed in a trapezoidal shape.
It makes the neck angle correctly.This neck joint construction made a different tone from
the current Talbo. Truss Rod and finger board construction are different
too. The current model have
the side adjusting type and finger board is slab board type.
This guitar is fair condition. The body has several paint dents with 3.68Kg weight.
The neck has beautiful tiger flamed, 1P maple. The nut width is 42.4, like C grip.
The parts are gold metal. The logo mark is gold type.
