Finally spotted my stolen Tokai Basses for sale, sixteen years later!

Unfortunately too late, but still. I scoured the internet for years in case, it only just hit, and for both at once.

First up, Black Jazz Sound with Bartollini pickups and no pick guard, even still in same Levy gig bag. It sold end of 2018 on BassChat UK. I send a message there in case anyone sees it again, so I could try to possibly buy it back, no questions asked.

Secondly, Sun Burst Tort guard Fretless Jazz Sound with Reflex Red pickups, as listed on Reverb in Germany. Never mind the same exact gig bag, it even still has the same grwd strings on it! So I sent the same message, no answer back. Again, I do not intend to point fingers. After all, I doubt the thief held on to em' for 16yrs, then got on a plane from Canada to Europe to sell them!

So, I won't likely see them again, but just hope they at least land in the hands of someone who will love them as I did. Because, I was indeed gutted when the were stolen way back then.

Still, I did ok finding replacements that I have enjoyed meantime.

Ok, now I feel better
