[edit] Change of title

As in my recent edit, the official title of this manufacturer is, in English, Tohai Musical Instrument Manufacturing Inc. Also, its product lineup, as mentioned, does not only include guitars. Hence, I wonder if the title of the article should be changed, and what should the new title be. --Samuel Curtis 08:22, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Support - From what it seems on their Japanese language site you are absolutely correct on the catalogue not only being guitars. I will have to trust you on the translation of the full company title (I can't find a ref to it in english). It would be nice to include some information about the other instruments (and stomp boxes if the Tokai branded ones are made by the same company?), I have never seen anything but guitars and basses. --SnakeSeries 09:51, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I emailed to the company to ask for the name. FYI: I'm not a music person; I just wandered by and edited the page. --Samuel Curtis 11:17, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

The email was never answered. However, I got the answer: by reading one of the related links, tokairegistry.com, it seemed that their preferred English form of the company on catalogues is Tokai Gakki Co. Ltd.. So, I propose, the name of this article to be changed to Tokai Gakki.
