What is the going rate for a Fender Toronado Korean, red with stripe, good shape? I've never played one, looks cool, just popped up on CL for $400. Seems a little high, but I know they are rare... |

Agreed. If one popped up for that much I'd snag it. You could maybe offer $350, but yeah, they are rare, and anyone selling one probably knows that. In some ways I like those better than the originals or the American models---good colors with matching headstock, stripe is cool, Duncan humbuckers. |

Seems fair if in good condition. I had that exact model, very good rock guitar, probably one of the best Fender have made if you are looking for that sound. |

the neck is too white, and the frets are stabby as fuuuuuuck on every one i tried.
the old mexican one with the bigasfuck pickguard is the way to go |

Too white?
I preferred the GT. The MIM doesn't really offer anything different to other Fenders/Squiers with humbuckers in my opinion. |
