is it just me, or is the toronado the les-paul of fender, im away of the deluxe tele but the the tornado imo is the closes to a les-paul aesthetic wise
@@JonadanandtheFreaks the scale length and the controls means you could get away with changing the pickups to a more les paul style as fender pickups will always sound fendery. And would probably work out cheaper than any les paul worth using
after seeing this i wish i had of bought the one i played in the music store a few months ago, of course i checked back and its gone, no! cool video man thanks!
Mate, if I was in the UK I’d buy from your shop for sure. But I’m in Australia...that said I bought lots of guitars because of your reviews, so thank you!
Never says a bad word about any single guitar! Every guitar is just great according to the guy whose job it is to sell every guitar n not upset any manufacturer! 🤣😎
I really appreciate the video, I'm a DIEHARD Squier FANATIC, but I'll be honest, just MY opinion, but I think you should've maybe used another amp to demo this one... Again, JUST my opinion, but that amp sounds boxy as hell, has virtually NO bass (listening on my Positive Grid Spark), and those clean tones just sounded TINY and lifeless... Sounds better when you crank the gain up, but it sounds almost like it's ALL mids... Please don't take that the wrong way, GREAT video, and YOU, personally were entertaining, informative, and funny! But that amp, man, lol... Especially on guitar and pedal videos, I think a nice, clean, loud amp would better showcase the products... Get yourself a Twin, mate, lol... But again, just my opinion, and thank you for a job well done!
@@ck2music712 Music is a matter of tastes and what genre you play or flavor you want to add to your sound (people love Mesa/Boogie and PRS, I hate both). I owned a Marshall JCM900 in the 90s, I liked it but in the 2000s it became "old fashioned" and I got a VHT Pitbull for gigging and a Fender Twin at home. Today, I stopped using pedals, I just plug my single P90 guitar into a single channel OR15 and turn all knobs up to 11. I don't need versatility, I just play with my band my own songs and we do punk.

@@djsangre I agree... I'm a bit of a "dualistic" player; I LOVE a crystal clean, Fender tone, but I also LOVE Metallica and their heavier tones... And I'm a bassy player; For YEARS I gigged with an '86 Peavy Bandit 65 sittin on top of a Peavy Basic 40 BASS amp and ran 'em together... People always used to tell us how "full" we sounded for a 3 piece, lol... My practice amp is currently a lil Fender Champion 40 runnin the Blackface Princeton model for my clean, then into a Behringer 7 band EQ for a lil scoop, and I recently replaced the speaker with a 12" Eminence Swamp Thang, and the bass moves things around the house, lol... But, clean or dirty, I'm gotta have that bass, lol...
@@ck2music712 You bass players are more civilized, you definitely reached a superior level of evolution then us guitar players :D If I'd get myself a bass I'm sure I'll end up playing Motorhead with a pick...on a Precision, maybe.
Have that guitar in Lake Placid Blue. Nice guitar for the price. Not a huge fan of the “Atomic Humbuckers” or the shitty little pots. Already bought new tuners, Seymour Duncan JB for the bridge and 59 for neck. Putting in new pots (push-pull for both PU’s), switch, and output jack. Just wanna see how good I can make her sound.
@@bennetmoraleda1750 The changes made it an absolutely different guitar. All the hardware and a pro setup have made it one of my favorite go-to players. Worth the investment for sure.
@@nehemiahzo_ Haha. Doing the same myself. I wonder which version is coming in the Contemporary HH ST Jag; the super sonic Atomics or the Toronado Atomics? I know the Jag has the covered pups and covers make a difference, not that much but if he's saying they sound diffeent in the two models innthrbparanormal series im wondering which might come in the Jag. I ordered one today. Shipping out in May.
I'm sorry if this comes off as maybe offensive, but, at first you remind me of "Joe Exotic", I have to say, you have the Balls to keep doing what you are doing, RESPECT FAM, Respect.
I have a Fender Toronado
sounds amazing
Sounds great might get one
Holy shit the sound of the Bridge pickup sounds so good
is it just me, or is the toronado the les-paul of fender, im away of the deluxe tele but the the tornado imo is the closes to a les-paul aesthetic wise
or SG for confornt.
I tried Toronado and Les Paul by comparaison two days ago. Not the same sound. Unfortunately. I was looking for a sounding LP but with Fender shape
@@JonadanandtheFreaks the scale length and the controls means you could get away with changing the pickups to a more les paul style as fender pickups will always sound fendery. And would probably work out cheaper than any les paul worth using
@@Delowist You think so ? Just by changing pickups ? What should I use ? Classic Seymour Duncan JB ?
This guitar is the Sleeper of the year ! Luv mine !

I wouldn't mate - they're usually a bit more pricey than everywhere else over here - gotta pay Dagan's wages somehow, I guess ;)
A Fender with a Les Paul scaled neck, makes it easier to play, that's all that matters, easy to play as you can pedal your sounds into what you desire
Really love offset guitars and between all of them the toronado and jaguar hh are my favorite.
I have an early 2000's one in a beautiful shade of ref
Never says a bad word about any single guitar! Every guitar is just great according to the guy whose job it is to sell every guitar n not upset any manufacturer! 🤣😎
I'd love one. without offering a lefty, It's just pretty firewood to me.
IMO this would have looked Even better with a maple fretboard along with the all black guitar
Sold
I wanna get one put a white pickguard on it and put an Emg 81x in the bridge and an EMG 89 in the neck

The Tornado for moredoe.
Anyone know if Squier’s stock pickups have extra wires so they can be coil split?
Great vídeo man! Have a vídeo about the Cyclone?
I want to put another neck on mine. Want 12" radius and bigger frets. Where can I get one in 24 3/4 scale. And will it fit?
How well do these pickups play with fuzz tones?
It's in Spanish pronunciation TOROH-NAH-DOH just like you're saying it most of the time in the video.
Exactamente, pero Tornado se escucha mejor que Toronado, más chingon
This guy knows how to demo a guitar.
Play some more and take mah money
Which one is good for blues and rock music... this guitar or epiphone sg standard 61...
I dig it
Probably every guitar plays lovely into an Orange amp but, now I want a Toronado! :D
Lol, I JUST commented how awful I thought that amp sounds, lol... Different strokes, I guess, lol...

Update? I’m interested in doing something similar.

@@alanpettibone thanks, I was thinking about this too... Sold!
Could have just gone for an ltd, gibson or gretsch at that point tho
Is FEJ-610 JAGUAR®/JAZZMASTER®/STARCASTER® GIG BAG good gig bag for paranormal toronado?
Doesn't seem like they made many of them. Hard to find here in Canada. Managed to find a lake placid blue one on reverb so I bought it yesterday.
How do you like it? I’m not buying one, I’m just here for a tone check on the pickups because I’m looking into the new Contemporary jag.

Looks cool, do u have it in lefty
buy the Super-Sonic and use it upside down :)
if you had to pick between the tornado or the offset tele which would you pick
Depends what music you want to play
Just get the one that catches your eye the most. Music style depends on tone anyways via amp and pedals
The Super-Sonic.
Same here. It's a toss up between a tornado or off set tele. Both guitars are cheap so I'll be buying both instead.
Is it good for metal? 👀
Yes
That amp sounds like a cardboard box tho
to my ears fender short scale guitars sound honky especially on humbuckers. I think with short scale gibson has a better sound, with more teeth on it.
