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...

Sounds fair to me.

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.

Too white? :lol:

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

$400 is pretty fair.
