TLW Guitarists

[VladimirIlyich]

This was my recent purchase. Nice sound both acoustically and also plugged in. Action was stupidly high so got it lowered and re-strung with some nice martin branded strings professionally.

Haven't their prices risen because of this though?

Still cheaper than USA made stuff though, which seems to be the holy grail of guitar and bass building.

 

I've got a German Warwick and a Japanese Tokai. Fuck you 'Murica.

I bought this G5220 last year and I just love it. Went with the intentions of buying a Tele and ended up walking away with this. Excellent quality and sound at a good price.

With Tokai's you can find 70's era guitar for @ 1200-1500 usd.

Not exactly cheap but still incredible value compared to getting into same era Gibson/Fender.

 

@Bruce Spanner Turns out Reverb have a bunch of sellers in Europe/UK

 

This Tokai is a good example @ 1150 - selling from someplace in Caterham
