Barry	Re: Identifying Tokai "Strat" pickups Thanks for the info. I wonder what these are? I suppose it is possible they are original equipment as I have seen a reference by someone somewhere who mentioned various Roman numerals on the pickup bobbins in their Tokai. shrug A co-owner of a local music shop played the Tokai and when he flipped to the bridge position said "See, this is what I want my Strat to sound like." He knew I was considering a pickup change and suggested I sell him these (which I won't). I just found it interesting that a knock-off pickup would be more desirable than those from a Deluxe Strat.
