Actually Help! did a GPOTD on the Tornado last week: http://markweinguitarlessons.com/forum/index.php?topic=696.0

I've never tried one myself, though...

i have a cheap ibanez dual humbucker solid body (gio GAX30TR) that i want to replace (my daughter will get the ibanez complete with a flame guitar strap just like the one one of the jonas brothers uses thwap )....was thinking a les paul type but saw this on craig's list and i really like the color....looks to have the same control setup as a les paul....i probably won't get it but.....

Don't know...you'd probably have to go and just try it out....since they don't make them anymore you can't try one out in a store, either....

there's just nothing outstanding about them. i've never picked up a Toronado and said "wow, this thing is awesome!" i mean, they're ok. perfectly serviceable guitars. i've just never been blown away by one.

if you're dying for a guitar that shape, check out the Samick TV20 or Radio 10.
