I'm a sucker for old Japanese guitars too. Great find!
 
I wanted a new pickup for this guitar and decided to go away from my conventional windings and decided to go with some things I learned and did did on the Psykes but with an A5. I did a combination of a little more scattering in combination with uniform winding. Took a few tries, but I got that same low end and bouncy feel, but with the tone of alnico. It sounds massive. And just used the standard short mag. The volume taper is nice.
hmm... Could this be the right pickup for my swamp ash Charvel...

According to them documentation this tokai is light ash. I'm getting ear fatigue today from a/b ing it so much. So far I like it a lot
