casapete Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Someone I know after selling this - has asked me what it is / value etc and I'm not sure!! Obviously some sort of generic Jazz copy, quite good quality too. Tinted gloss neck, matching headstock,chrome knobs and finger rest!! No clues on it as to origin,brand name etc. Have cleaned it up and its in pretty good nick, plays and sounds fine. Any thoughts/opinions/ideas of what it may be worth etc. more than welcome - many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos3h Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 It's one of those generic Chinese jobbies, Rockers in Denmark Street used to have a boatload of them badged as 'Rockers' but they turn up all over the place. Actually pretty good VFM when set up, but you're not going to be able to retire on the proceeds! Probably valued at about £100-125?

Ou7shined Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 The pickups are misaligned so it could be a Fender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, no logo so maybe/probably not. (Cant see it being worth £295 new either TBH! ) Thanks for the info, cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 [quote name='bh2' post='927558' date='Aug 17 2010, 01:54 PM']Tokai?[/quote] No - it would say "Tokai" on it if it was. Moos3h is right - it's just a no-brand far-eastern copy, clearly a perfectly decent Jazz but it will have originated from one of any number of guitar factories with unpronounceable names in China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Indonesia etc. It's not an anything! He's right about the value too - that's about £100's worth. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
