Hi! There's not much for active Bass communities on Lemmy yet so I figured I'd ask here. I'm considering a Tokai Jazz bass, and I see they don't make them. A lot of the info I see says they're mid 80s, but there's one new one for sale near me that is "2021-2023".

I've played it, and it does indeed seem brand new. I however can't find info on when Tokai made these damn things. Anyone help a confused drummer out while he tries to navigate the world of not-drums?

Tokai is a Japanese brand who makes guitars and basses both in Japan and abroad. The old ones are excellent, I dreamed of a white strat clone of theirs in a music store when I was a teenager.

Heard the newer ones are still pretty good, but I’ve never had my hands on one.
