I don't mean to insult your taste in guitars. I just mean that the things you complain about with the toronado that you had I have not noticed in any of the many toronados that I have played. I've never owned one, but I have been pleased with every one that I played in a shop.jcyphe wrote:Or you like different things than I do.

Don't worry I didn't take it as an insult. I have played several MIM Toronados all had the same problems I described. I got one for stupid cheap and held it for a while seeing if I could warm up to it, but I never could.Billy3000 wrote:I don't mean to insult your taste in guitars.

I do that alot with Fenders cause they're so cheap, I pick one up for a while just for laughs. The only Fender guitar I'm really into all the time is the Strat.

I like cheap. I like affordable.
If it makes the sounds I like and feels good to play that's all that matters to me. At least unlike Gibson Fender aren't charging thousands of bucks for shoddy workmanship.
Having said that cheap is the last word I would use to describe how my Telecaster and Mustang feel to me.

I just finsihed reading a thread on fuckoffsetguitars about how the Thin Skins were being shipped with paint chips and cracks. That's a $1700 bolt on neck guitar, talk about shoddy.
