it is a toronado. i believe is a 2003. US made. i am still unclear EXACTLY what it is since it seems that there were so made different styles made. i suspect this the USA Deluxe, but most of those that i have seen either have p-90s of the nickel plated humbuckers. thoughts?

It's a delicious guitar whatever it is. How many bones did that cost?

That colour looks better on that guitar than it does on a tele. Very nice.
