Made in Japan in 1983, the SS-38 Silver Star was Tokai’s version of the CBS era Fender Stratocaster. 
 
Featuring an Alder body, The neck is a great piece of Maple, "C" profile and shows some beautiful darkening on the face of the headstock. Slab Rosewood fretboard additionally looks great, being such a dark piece it goes really well with the blackout aesthetic.
 
Classic 70s strat features like large headstock, bullet truss and a three-bolt neck plate. 3ply scratchplate, black control knobs, 5 way selector switch.
